Very neat from a biomechanical viewpoint, although I couldn't imagine spending my career watching ants jump.

Lol are the people doing the comontery compleat retards? lol thay hardly give anny informatoin. the girl dose a terable job of protending she dosent know something to ask a questoin half way through. in short these students ore who ever thay are managed to rewin some quite intresting footage of ants whitch could have been made very intresting and informative had the comentry not been a exploratoin into oral retardatoin.

westy:

They seem to be well-intentioned if clumsy podcasters. But I did include the "jump ahead" warning for reasons.

But back to the issue that inspired me to post . . .

did you just spell "ruin" as "rewin"?

I've messed with large Odontomachus nests in the rainforests of the small Caribbean island named Dominica. Biggest ants I've ever seen alive. Huge muscle bulges behind their eyes on the backs of their over-sized heads.

Locals often call them the Tac-tac ants, because you can sometimes hear the snap of their mandibles. The local species on Dominica had a powerful stinger tucked into its jaws, so the slight pinch of the mandibles would be followed by a wasp sting-like pain.

wow!!! i didn't know ant was so talented!!!!

LadyBug: I am not that species. I am a harvester species. But I can send these guys after you and your buddies to keep you guys away from my aphids!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

don't you dare!!!! *licks lips*

wish you all could jump with your mandibles....

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

I'm going to start a new net subculture for LB and Ant - instead of Furries, they can be Exo-skeletonies.
