@alexwild@mastodon.online Do they have transhumance, too? It would be hilarious to see them driving herds of aphids up a mountainside for the summer.

@alexwild@mastodon.online Any thoughts on how the wingless little fly can keep up with the relentless ants with such short little legs? https://www.alexanderwild.com/Ants/Making-a-Living/Army-Ants/i-NgvpZMR

@alexwild@mastodon.online The photo of the isopods hiding is so dramatic— no one can ignore the army.
