Secret Megalopolis of Ants Uncovered - Truly a Wonder of the World !

- How do subterranean cities of ants look like? 10 tons of cement were required to fill the wholes and tunnels. Then it took weeks to uncover the secret megalopolis of the ants. With the help of mechanical diggers, brazilian scientists removed tons of earth. At last, the scientists begin to see the structure of the city state.

Sad, but funny at the same time.

No ants were harmed during this video. Prior to pouring concrete, extensive negotiations with the ant citizens regarding compensation and relocation have taken place.
Ants moved to a greener pasture and are now running casinos.

Yeah so sad
"So, I discovered this amazing, enormous city created by ants." "That's awesome, they must have incredible cooperation to do that." "Yes, they are an awe inspiring species." "By the way, how did you work out the layout of this marvellous feat of animal engineering." "Oh, I poured concrete through the tunnels and killed all the ants."
I fell sorry for all the ants
They look aliens, but we are their aliens killing them and one day space invaders aliens (if any exist) will kill us bcz we keep ‘pocking’ in the wrong place and feeding our stupid curiosity when some things should be left alone. We could safe so much lives, money and worries the day we leave these sort of things alone and start focusing in other more urgent needs that needs to be sort out. 🎋🌎👨👩👧👦🌍🐝🌏🪸
@@maryrose4228 Don't worry. The colony is an abandoned one. The small amount of ants you see are just foragers from colonies around and are of completely different types. This colony was made by Leafcutter ants.

We use electricity and electrical devices for less than 200 years now- the comparison with ants is way too small.

Has anyone ever felt the random need to wonder what ants are doing.
Thank you for posting this video. The location wasn't mentioned, but a little research seemed to indicate that these mega-colonies are showing up in areas usually pastured by cattle. That it has happened in 3+ very separate parts of the world is unlikely to be by natural selection, and some insecticides tend to linger.
ants must felt like pompei when the cement starts rushing in
🎵And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we looooooove🎵

@@cajunamuria5938 that's because you're ignorant, to lazy to search for truth but always fast enough to criticise someone without any knowledge
It would be interesting if there was a camera small enough to glue to an ant so you could get a tour of the inside of one.
It would need some NVD
Brilliant idea
The best we could do is smothering the camera with some type of food and let them carry it inside. Since cameras work gathering photons, very small cameras can’t see anything.
Endoscopy would do this quite well
@@gypsycat1765 endoscopic cameras have lights attached, very nifty
The real question is how did the cement flow so perfectly into all the small places without actually ruining the structures??
Maybe highly diluted with water, so it stayed liquid for a long time? Definitely not construction-grade cement...
@@ClintLock1 It would make sense then that they waited for a month.
Thrs cement that's lik water but it tak way longer to dry
It call mother mix
This is not mortar actually,a very thin cement mix with water

Ants with rockets & lasers?
wow. I would've thought the tunnels would have been too delicate to excavate, but the tunnels are HUGE!
I always knew ants are incredible but looking into leaf cutters really opened my eyes to the details. Funny part is even with the all that cement, they probably didn't cover the entire nest. I think they can stretch 100m, plus you could still see soldier ants.
I always wondered about my grandmothers house, she said her dad tried to kill the leaf cutter ants in their driveway when she was young now she is 101 and still kicking. I’m 46 and always watched those ants marching with leaves in and out of the underground mound ever since I was little. I could only imagine how massive that underground world must be! Amazing stuff!
People fail to understand how to kill leaf cutter ants. You don't go after the ants themselves. Yet, you use fungicide to kill their food source, instead.

@@marcoduvall4404 HIGHLIGHTED COMMENT
We managed to kill our home ants this year. They were living in between two layers of old and new balcony tiles. Once we renewed our balcony tiles and destroyed their nest, they disappeared from anywhere inside the apartment also.. which is great. We tried everything before that - all sorts of poison, substances, leaving meat and then killing swarms, filling in any holes etc. The only thing that worked was destroying the nest. We couldn’t see the queen, but we think she probably died without us realising in the works..
It's a relief to know ants have headlamps to find their way down in the dark depths. But where they get batteries for them is still a puzzling mystery.

That was crazy how intricate that whole nest was. Imagine if ants were big as rats would they take over 😂
Undoubtedly. Makes you wonder
Haha
I said this back when I was younger that ants would take over if they were bigger. My friend told me, and it made a lot of sense, "Ants really aren't that smart though". Now let's unpack this. If we were going to war with ants, all they would do is send tons and tons and tons of ants to fight. Ants are a "Hive mind" creature. Although very fascinating, most of what they do is instinctive. There would be no strategy on the side of the ants besides sending thousands/millions of their own to fight till there would be none left. They wouldn't strategize amoungst themselves on how to take us out.
@@LiGhTfOoT_ we’d need millions of cans of raid and flame throwers
normal brown rats do live in tunnel burrows under the ground. They also do have a langauge... and now considering wherever humans are rats, I think they might have taken over already if it weren't for brave heroic cats being out there on the streets fighting the fight.
Imagine you’re the ant worker trying to get back home, but then you see group of guys digging your ant hill
The ants that built it have left the colony
Such a impressive structure. The sheer size and scope is amazing. All constructed by a single colony of Ants. 💪🏻🙏🏻✨

Besides these ants were probably invasive killing off the native species near it in that case it's definitely necessary if you wanna preserve the wild life and it's a perfect opportunity to study them so a win win. You all just really wanna this on human race so much like why even.
Amazing how they give the ants so much respect for building this and call it a true wonder of the world after they wiped out their entire civilization. Who knows how much bigger this may have gotten.
Imagine when Aliens do the same to us one day. "Wow these monkeys really built a lot." *Pours cement over planet in admiration*
Oh how the turn tables
colonizer mentality
Quite sure the colony was abandoned when they excavated it
Ant colonies often abandon dwellings if brooding fails to produce a viable replacement before the queen dies. I'd assume the entomologist who's pet project this is chose a colony that had run it's life cycle.
Dad: "If you don't finish school you'll end up digging ditches."
Son: "Okay, then I want to be an entomologist."
If the thumbnail was legit, "Amazing ancient ant colony discovered, dug up and destroyed"
ants, bees and termites are miracles of nature. their social and building organization and instincts to accomplish these feats makes me stand in awe! thank you for this.
Ummmmm did you notice that they murdered an entire colony by filling their city with concrete? All that work by millions of ants & they got killed as a reward 🤷♀️ One day aliens will do this to us out of curiousity & we will be horrified

I left them alone at first having a 'live and let live' philosophy, until one night to my horror I saw thousands heading into my cedar deck.

That thing belongs in a museum. You could tag and identify each peice and section, make a map of how every peice fits together, perhaps laser scan it for proper alignment, then break it up into manageable peices for later assembly. It would be a huge undertaking though, the support system for everything would be rather complex.

Yes, exactly what i think also. It would be VERY hard work to move it but worth the effort.
It would be easier to do a 3D scan, then make a copy out of plastic. Those long thin tunnels (now concrete branches) would be very fragile.

Ants: "Our colony is the greatest empire! Soon we'll destroy our rivals and lead our kind to a better future!"
Humans: pouring concrete.
don't worry, they already had made escape tunnels for emergency situations like this, which can be disconnected from the main structure. The ants are fine and living peacefully deeper down, making new structures.
