How Ants Are Born

This young colony of Camponotus has a queen and 17 ant-workers. Wanna see how the 18th ant is born?

 

 

1

At first there was an egg that later turned into a small white larva-caterpillar that ants licked and fed. Then it became a cocoon. And when the time for a new ant to be born came, another experienced worker started to help him.

2

At first, ant made a couple of holes in the cocoon.

3

When ants could see the eye of the new ant, the worker made an incision.

4

The upper part of the cocoon is removed as a cap. All ants help to get the little one out of his shell.

56

The new born ant can’t move himself yet. His legs and antennae are crumpled.

7

Ants straiten him up and lick his legs.

8

The little one stands still for a while, adjusting to the new feelings.

9

The new born ants can’t stand and walk firmly on their feet. But in a few hours this ant will be able to run.

作为一名小时候残害过很多蚂蚁的凶手,我为自己的行为而悔恨,我保证,绝不再犯,并作出尽可能的补偿。这些也同样适用于我曾经伤害过的其他动物。 by mtjs
