Army Ants Rampage Through The Forest | The Hunt | BBC Earth

Boasting a sensory system of 2 million antennae, this colony of Army Ants are a formidable proposition for anything alive which may cross their path. These dynamic insects, despite being blind, are able to transcend their size by working as a complete unit.

That stick insect knows what's up.

2:34 dude just bit his leg.
Tear slowly falls from his eye.

[markvsblack]

Awesome. Stick insects are true masters of camouflage. Even when touched a predator couldn't identify it as living.

[tomvu]

Stick insect: I’ve mastered the ability of standing so incredibly still...that I become invisible to the eye..

You know it's bad when even wasps have to run from them.

"You let one ant stand and they all might stand. Those puny little ants outnumber us 100 to 1"

Stick Bug: *gets bit*
Also Stick Bug: *cries internally*

[trueshere]

“As long as it remains still, it is safe”
*continues staying still while being eaten alive*

I love how one ant takes a chomp out of the one bug's leg, but the bug sucks it up cos it knows if it moves it's gonna die. Crazy stuff.

I swear this man's voice can make anything sound interesting

“ you’re probably wondering how I ended up here ....”

[stuckatthefrontdesk]

Whenever I have bad day, I just come back to this and remember I'm still better off then that Grasshopper.

[MuttonTheDragon]

You know... The more I watch these ant documentary pieces, the more I realized Hopper was right to fear the ants working in numbers against the grasshoppers.

This whole video would have a very different vibe if insects were capable of screaming.

Credits to the camera man who recorded this without dying

[blig]

2:34 my dude is probably screaming in pain in his head

[nathang]

Colony: *Hungry*
Queen: "Two-hundred thousand units are ready, with a million more well on the way.

[Ajay-dyxw]

2:24
Ant: what's this? Oh, just a flying stick. *walks away*
Stick: phew-
Ant: *WAIT A MINUTE-*
