- I can't believe we made another novel discovery in our newly bought ant forest! In this episode, we fortify our new forest/ant paradise for the native ants in my area, applying permaculture principles to build a food forest. While doing so we finally hear back from my myrmecologist & ant taxonomist friend Dr. General regarding a mystery ant we collected last week. Turns out it was a new and rare find! Hope you enjoy this week's episode! Ant love forever! This video was shot in 4K Ultra HD resolution.

With great ant power, comes great ant responsibility!

Yesssssssss
You guys are the treasure and have all the power in the world! Ant love forever! ❤🐜🙏
This man has enough money to buy an ant mansion, and the land around it, yet he doesn't spend it on crazy things. Truly a role model.
define crazy?
if you arent an ant enthusiast... this would be crazy!
but yes he truly is a good role model.
@@hmongtse He's using his money for good, instead of just hoarding it or spending it on useless junk
@@hmongtse lol beat me to it XD
Yeah
Actually he bought land and his house is in process of getting built... he can't stay in his apartment forever its getting crowded with all his other pets and he said in his vlog that he actually got complaints from neighbors
am i the only one who feels comforted listening to him talk about his ants
no, i listen to him when going to sleep. educational AND relaxing!
We are 4 millions who think the same thing
I am 5o
Lol
Me too!
“I’m still enjoying watching it walk around. Hehe.” *wheezes*
He sounds like a wholesome dude lmao
when you’re a brillant scientist you get to vibes how you want
Whats it like being an expert? I get to laugh at new species
Oo

Just imagine one day, you wake up and see a bunch of professional ant researchers knocking on your door asking to study our forest.
I would say "Yes. I'll make you guys pizza for lunch. Enjoy!"
@@AntsCanada fair
It's going to happen.
I agree
@@AntsCanada lol, pizza for lunch for some reason I feel like you would actually do that
It's 2070, you're old and visiting your kid's house. You see your grandkid watching tv, some random nature document.
You sit down, close your eyes to relax, your grandkids noises of surprise and scientific words passes through your ears in a blur.
In a moment you hear one that makes your nose tingle and your mouth turn up.
"Dilobocondyla Acfamilius"
Noice
Noice
If this hapens a tear will come to my eye knowing i was there
i don’t know why but this made me wanna cry
like in a good way
Also, one of the black crazy ants had one of those red mites on it’s leg just so you know. This means the crazy ants might not be the only threat to the natives.
I saw that as well and searched through the comments to make sure I wasn’t seeing things. That sucker looked huge!!!
AntsCanada : this ant is rare
Dr General : ah sh*t, here we go again
XD
Lmaoooo
Lmao
LOL
👍
Antscanada went from selling his ant keeping products online to being the Mr. Beast for ants.
Now that’s character development.
Yeah
@Ben Knopke both are good for me but I would like to see him switch between them every so often
@Ben Knopke yep but most people disagree with us which is why he has 4mill subs now
@Ben Knopke what's so wrong with a little drama? A little flair? At least he shows passion on what he's doing.
@@awesomegamer-cv4zf switch between wat
I mentor a student at school and we watch your videos every week! He has asked me to comment his ideas for names of your new property. The Shaded Path, Lilliput, Cobblestone Pathway, and The Forest Tunnel. Keep making such awesome informative videos!
You should name the black crazy ants “The Dark Raiders”
That’s really good!
i was thinking the crazy colony or crazy conquerors
I was thinking ants on crack
Or Dark void
Ooooo Good name!
To be honest I’ve probably learned more from this channel than all of my years of science class-
Yay! Prepare to learn so much more ahead! Ant love forever!
And you bet I'm gonna learn my biology class all of this if it won't be mentioned
@@AntsCanada you should name the black crazy ants the Black Plague because their invasive
@@bandit2116 that’s a rly good idea I’ll spread it but credit you
The learning here is fun too!
A name for the Black Crazy Ants could be: "Midnight Marauders". Midnight- referring to their deep black color; and Marauders- referring to their pillaging nature.
Perfection.
Best Name Ever!
I was legit gonna comment "the marauders" but midnight marauders is better
Op
Thats so good
I love how he says “we” instead of “me” it seems so simple but it really pulls you in and makes you want to listen and watch and makes you as hyped as him. It’s truly amazing. I feel accomplished without doing anything it’s crazy-
He speaks beautifully, poetic and yet in a tone I have never heard in anyone, and he also makes it sound so sympathetic!
Doctor General: “Hey AC don’t lose hope! Where you live you have around a 50% chance to document a new ant species!”
AC: 👁👄👁 “THAT’S AMAZING! Thank you Doctor General! I have a new dream! I’m gonna send you a an Ant everyday until we find a new species!” 😄
Doctor General: *”Wait wha-“*
🤣🤣🤣
@@AntsCanada, Hey AC great episode! Thanks for the heart! ❤️🐜🐜
@@AntsCanada Thanks for a new episode Antscanada! I hope you find a new ant one day have a good day or night!
that funny
it good
Dr. General is one of the coolest names I've ever heard
It reminds me of dollar general
7:45 Dr. General’s love of ants warms my heart 🥺
The invasive ants seem like they really want to mess up your ecosystem, you could say that they're the ANTagonists of this story haha

that was a terrible pun
Mikey buys an island, turns into a rainforest wild-life sanctuary like the Galapagos island, calls it the Bustos Island, ants crown him king.
Let's call it our AC Ant Island!!! 🏝

Let's all do our part!
So we kill invasive ants?
yeah cant we just kill em
i mean i killed a ant before

Damn a lot of Dilobocondyla are living in the Philippines, now i wonder if its in my backyard rn👀 especially knowing that they are rare
This video is from Philippines
ur icon looks familiar 👀
I swear this channel is more fun and informative than some of my actual science classes. Thanks for teachin us what you love mikey ^^
So true🤣🤣
Yup, my guy problably taught me more than my school ever did
😂
So far the only things Ive learned about the environment is that the forests are getting destroyed and that we have different ways of useing the environment for electricity. This is definatly more informative than school
Super true
SOOOO RELATABLE

Ooo how about the name “The Berserkers”? Sounds pretty sick and similar to black crazy ants.

I haven't been watching your channel for a while, not because of any dislike I just like to hop between some channels benchwatching them for a while and then not watching them until I feel like watching them again.
And wow did I miss out. When I started watching you keeping your indoors antfarms ears ago I learned, that I'am even more interested in ants than I tought and was happy about your courious and scientific way of handeling things.
But now you've grown so much with the new patches of land and really doing some scientific work!
That is such a great develpment for you channel! As a scientist myself (altough from a different field) that makes me so happy.
Good luck and keep up the good work man great chnallel and gread conservation work.
Congrats on 4m subs we have been watching for over a year and love your videos, very informative and educational!!! Lots of love from the UK x
That was a lovely episode :D
The discoveries just keep coming! ... One of these days we'll get our acfamilius. :D

@@AntsCanada hey uh ants canada do you remember me? I'm H you made a private video for me do you remember me?
4:55 Id instandy thought the name for the black crazy ant colony should be: The Black Plague
Yes.
Yes. 2
This is so intense its like a war movie😂
Name of Black ants:Black death
Isn’t that the name for the bubonic plague
And I’m serious is it?
Yes
imagine how that Ant felt when it was surrounded 😥😰
Yeah, pretty grim though
I love just how cinematic all of his episodes are. I know how much time that takes and the fact that he does it for every episode is mindblowing
Thanks for noticing the details! Ant love forever! ❤🐜🙏
@@AntsCanada I’m trying to get your attention everywhere so you at least notice the idea, that you could call the black crazy ants the Black Plague so pardon me if it’s getting annoying.
"I'm still enjoying watching it walk around. hehe" classic. True legend
Well it is a rare species so of course. 😉
Dr. General's reply made me chuckle 😂
POG ant
@@em-gray ditto😂 🤣
Your confidence and enthusiasm is endearing
You fill my hearth with this man, im in tears
Black crazy ants name suggestion: “The Black Mist”
That works perfectly
The Black Mist of Antopia
I came up with a really similar name: "The Black Tanks."

Name the black crazy ants “The Black Plague” because they’re like a disease that just keeps spreading.

Yess!
!!!! That’s what I was thinking too!!!
me too!!!
Yesssss :D
Nature preservation is my true love.
Ants are kool n all, but in the end then theyre "only" a mirrorreflection of all the synergies that combined makes up the world. Theyre fun to watch, and even more so with an enthustiastic voiceover.
This is one of my fav YT channels. But ants are dwarfed by the magic that springs from motherearth herself. TY so much for what youre doing. Nomatter what the motivation and priorities are, the total impact is all the sudden what matters most to me. Plz include a few updates from the safehaven each vid - if possible. If not, then ill still tug in and watch the ant colonies, and ill do it with a smile.
Thx for the upload. Its awesome
Why does this not have over 1 million views? This is just absurd. Why? The video is awesome.
This guy is going to buy the whole island and turn it into an ant farm eventually
And he’s just asked if he should do it 🤣
He’s gonna buy a whole continent eventually
Mrbeast style
you can say that again
2023: He lives in Antopia, formerly known as "the Philippines".
I legit be watching this man run a proxy war between ant colonies. Playin 3D chess with Mother Nature....

Ahhh how I've missed watching your videos ❤ they are so wholesome and amazing not to mention also educational. Everytime I watch one of your videos I learn something new.
18:36 that is so cool!!! :) my families back yard is actually pretty big because its a old house their is a part where trees and plants have grown near around and inside/in between a tall fence it all happened naturally nature taking over and using man made structures you know I’ve always hated/ was confused by was the term and concept of “weeds” unwanted plants like there’s nothing that makes grass or trees superior to these plants why get rid of them (its ok to get rid of invasive plants)
The black crazy ants should be called “The chaos insurgency”
I see you are a man of culture
boi the fire ants are no mtf squad or scps

@@snailcheeseyt Same. I stopped watching because i was annoyed with how he kept so many ants in such a small room and i thought he couldn't properly take care of them (which i was right) so im glad he bought a new house
Thank you! Ant love forever! ❤🙏
I love how antscanda help me more to learn than my teachers
The most craziest but most environmental friendly in this channel is insane, I just found out about that other 82 ACRES YOU BOUGHT
The black crazy ants could be know as - "the black bandits"
That's a really good name, I kinda like it
How about the "black stalkers"
Black Marauders?
@@cheese366 that can be another choice,
Black crazy ants need to be destroyed in his region though as they are invasive. Though I don't have to worry here about them as they are native.
The crazy ants should be named “The Army Of Darkness” with their dark lord
This is my favorite suggestion
I love this name!
Ooohhh
That’s a great name wow
Meh
You should add more rocks, logs ,stuff like that
Just banged through a whole series
I will never unsub from this channel, the content is pretty much the highest quality.
True

My mom was also super cool and let me have about a third of the backyard to just let grow wild, which we called the habitat. This was inspired by some TV show on Animal Planet about turning backyards into havens for local wildlife, which I saw as a young child, so our own habitat was a big feature of my childhood. We even transplanted a few maple saplings we found all in a pot behind the shed, and we had other types of saplings around the rest of the backyard and over on the strip of yard on the right side of the house. There was also a male holly tree growing right out of the paved part of the backyard, right on the edge of the porch, and we planted a female holly bush over in the patch of grass by the stairs down from the porch, where there was also an oak sapling. Most of the trees started off small, the oak probably even sprouted right where it was, and over time they grew up to be taller than a person. My mom did end up taking a bit of the habitat to have her own garden, but the plants I really liked that grew in that spot she left to grow when they came up. And we also got some cool wildlife, a couple times we even saw mantises. We had to move a few years back, and part of the reason I was really reluctant to part with the house was because I didn't know if the new owners would keep all the trees, which I cherished dearly. It's actually still a sore spot for me, and I haven't dared to check up on the place since.
Woah, your mom is awesome!
Woooaaahhh
a third??????? wow thats nothing man
I remember the video b4 this i lost this video an never watched it this is amazing
Never been interested in ants,... and here I am unable to stop watching these AC videos. LOL
The black crazy ants should be called the Black Plague because they’re like a plague to the native ants!
This was @CookiesAreGood ‘s idea.
Good name indeed, I think it’s over kill though... That’s just the name of a fatal virus...
How about Xenos there an alienated species and they have the same colors as most xenomprphs in the movies?
Maybe the OutLanders?
@@CrimsonWillowBaitCo. bacteria, not virus.
I really love that someone named Dr. General says "hehe"
For the canopy layer try planting Jackfruit they're really healthy for you and might as well start now.
Yah they are delicious!
Anyone else who wants updates from this guy weekly or monthly. I be wondering what this guy is up to. Also this is so cool cos if any of the species he has become endangered then there is a preservation effort and one we trust. This guy is epic. Also the narrative and narration makes this so interesting dude should have a show on animal planet or something
