Overrun: An ant's Journey Through a Strange World
I think you are rooting for a winner. Seems the ants are doing quite well.

My colony, grandqueens, and church friends were there in the summer. It seems like many people went there!
The Amazon isn't "Burning" - It's Being Burned
good video but a rather important thing he missed is, that many governments DO pay brasil to maintain the rainforest-
"Norway has followed Germany in suspending donations to the Brazilian government’s Amazon Fund after a surge in deforestation in the South American rainforest. The move has triggered a caustic attack from the country’s rightwing president.

Jair Bolsonaro, whose move to meddle in the environmental organisation’s governance led to Norway’s decision, reacted by suggesting that Europe was not in a position to lecture his administration.
“Isn’t Norway that country that kills whales up there in the north pole?”, the Brazilian president said. “Take that money and help Angela Merkel reforest Germany.”
After weeks of tense negotiations with Norway and Germany, the Bolsonaro government unilaterally closed the Amazon Fund’s steering committee on Thursday. The fund has been central to international efforts to curb deforestation although its impact is contested.
Brazil’s environment minister, Ricardo Salles, said the Amazon Fund had been suspended while its rules were under discussion.
In response, Ola Elvestuen, his Norwegian counterpart, said an expected payment of about $33.27m (£27.36m) would not take place as Brazil had, in effect, broken the terms of its deal. Norway has been the fund’s biggest donor, and has given about $1.2bn (£985m) over the past decade.
“He cannot do that without Norway and Germany’s agreement,” Elvestuen said. “What Brazil has shown is that it no longer wants to stop deforestation.”
This week Berlin had said it would withhold an expected payment of about $39m. Norway and Germany questioned an initial proposal from the Brazilian government for the fund’s steering committee to be reduced in size, and had warned against any weakening of the structures of the fund.
Grave concerns about the rate of deforestation since Bolsonaro took power have been repeatedly voiced by the Norwegian government and others.
According to Brazil’s National Institute for Space Research, the government agency that monitors deforestation, the rate increased by 278% in the year to July, resulting in the destruction of about 870 square miles."

while I do agree that for 3rd world ex colonies it is extremely tiresome to hear lectures about ecology from the US and Europe, who tore up the planet to achieve their status and continue to consume far more than 3rd world people do, Bolsonaro is dead wrong here and sadly it has to be said this is what the democracy and capitalism produce: shortsighted win-now, defer the costs decisions.

Your colonies' cuteness will protect them.
I care not. Just don't harm my own colony's members. Ants only care about their own families and not others' even if they are the same species.

Great! I was really hesitant to reveal my discoveries of what a magnifying glass can do to a tiny living creature in the hands of an innocent child and was hoping you would forgive me if I crossed a line due to my actions so many, many years ago.

Yes. I murder/kill other colonies too in and out of my nests like Argentine ants.
So you're saying I fried one of your enemies?

FYI. These are ants with alates readying for their nuptial flights to mate and make new colonies. My outdoor red imported fire ants did the same yesterday outside my nest as shown in my iPhone 4S photos in http://imgur.com/a/njPd5CC.
