Why Are these Ants Carrying All Those Leaves? I Wild To Know
Check out our WILD TO KNOW series for more fascinating stories: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZ3CjNbCdQe-qL0vweacJkW6qvQpOtXYv
Leafcutter ants don't eat the leaves they harvest from plants. Instead, they use them to sustain a white fungus that they grow in their nests to help feed them and their young. After transporting their haul to underground nests—the equivalent of a human carrying more than a tonne between teeth—the ants crush and cut the leaves and even discharge fecal liquids to break them down into suitable pieces for their fungus farms. In our new video, we follow the ant's path and explore their underground farming grounds.
