The Harvester
Ant
Colonies of harvester ants operate perfectly well in the absence of
any apparent central control or organizing force. They travel up
to 40 feet from their nests foraging for food.
Maintenance ants police the nest entrance to reject items too
large for the nest tunnels. Watch these insects as
they busy themselves about their nest.
