The termites kicked major ass, wtf you talking about 2discover, and yah we didn't invent war but that's no excuse to keep waging them, in fact, the difference is we humans have a consciousness and once we are aware of that, CAN evolve beyond such stupidity.
If you think that WAR is only a human thing, think again.
See how the ants attack the termites as they new queen and kings make ready to leave their nest and start their own colonies. The termite guards are the ones with the big heads, but they are no match to the ants with their biological weapons. Just another thing we didn't invent.
So I'm an apiarist, not a formicarist or termite expert. In my years of beekeeping and knowing the different caste system of the bees, I can only guess that the ones with wings are drones because they reproduce with (at the time) winged queens and the others are workers because they are smaller. Am I right or not?
u said that the termites are no match against the ants with their biological weapons. i was wondering what this "biological weapon" is that the ants use.
arent the termites the one who use acid as a weapon??(i know the ants also use acid but i thought termites also used acid in order to chew down the wood)
I hate termites, but I put like 400 of em in my ant aquarium (atleast 1000 ants) and next day, all the ants were dead except for the queen which I caught trying too get out and afew soldiers.
yep, they're males and females, and the males are preeeety short lived, once they've done the thing to produce more termite spawn, the males will die and the females will shed their wings and become the respective queens of each of their broods
sry man, couldn't be farther from the truth...they're actually young queens massing at the nest opening...they will leave on a nupital flight shortly, but they retreat to the nest once the ants arrive, only to die in the depths of their very own home...sad i know...
ants would basicly be the perfect raice if they where bigger. specialy the right type of ants. nuks or not it would be worst then the start troopers movie :P and well lose though.
every summer those winged ones in the beginning would be flying around like crazy one day out of the year. I hated it. ity was sweet seeing those ants raid the nest.
i couldnt really see anything in the video. anyway yeah ants always win. They can cut up anything. I saw a nature show on tv and ants raided a termite mound and dragged the massive termite queen out! what a great prize for their victory lol.
well, that is pretty cool that the termites have that defense tactic cus those soldiers really got messed up by the ants. there are no termites around where i live, i have never seen em, but there is about 50-100 types of ants, of all sizes and colours
dude.... those ants can eat up to frogs, and rodents...and pretty much everyinsect it sees it will kill and eat, and it also depends what species, the army ants, can eat up to humans.... and i am not joking
Hey, in my garden i saw a MASSIVE BATTLE between the red ants and black ants. It lasted about half an hour because there was so many. The black ants invaded the red ants colony and attacked. Too bad, the red ants lost and the black ants ate all the eggs and KILLED THE QUEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i wish the ants hear would have a large scale battle. I never see a fight bigger then 12 on 12 cept on time when 13 red ants attacked 7 black ants. *SIGH* they are just having minor regime wars...
Not necessarily. When the Termites (which are blind) are snuggled inside their mounds, they are incredibly difficult to root out. Ants have trouble swarming the much larger (and albet harder shelled) termites. I've seen a colony of termites successfully defend itself of millions of driver ants because of that. I was much surprised.
I thoroughly enjoyed this 2Discover, Mashimaldito. Fascinating... how they are so incredibly organized. The background music was well-done. I want to find some more of these videos, about insectivorous warfare pertaining to bees, ants, and the social insects. Thank you.
And it is there where they have an advantage over the ants; the ant army will move no further. The termite soldiers will sacrifice their lives and use them as walls to cover the entrace if needed while the workers seal bothe the termite soldiers and the swarming and out. All the termite soldiers fightinf outside will die, but the attack will be repelled.
It looks like the attack is actually being repelled; the males(winged termites) flew away from the battlefield, the workers hid inside the pit, and half a dozen dozen termites went out to fight while a few others went inside or stayed inside to use their bodies to obtrude the entrance (These are basic termite warefare tactics when defending fortresses). Sure about a dozen termites might not make it through the day, but the attack will be repelled--for the time being.
The winged termites consist out of male and females. They are the new king and queens of the termite colony. They only leave the nest after the rains and then they start their own colonies. The termite soldiers with the big heads are no match to the ants on the open ground and can only provide resistance in their termite nests. The only thing the termites can do when they are attacked is to run back into their nest.
