Why do ants bring back their dead?
Necrophoresis is a behavior found in social insects – such as ants, bees, wasps, and termites – in which they carry the dead bodies of members of their colony from the nest or hive area. This acts as a sanitary measure to prevent disease or infection from spreading throughout the colony.
Why do ants touch when passing?
Like most social insects, ants need to communicate with each other. If you watch ants on a trail, you will notice that they often touch each other with their antennae (long feelers on the head) when they meet. All ants can produce pheromones, which are scent chemicals used for communication and to make trails.
Why do ants never stop moving?
Ants “rest” at night, though not voluntarily. They are exotherms (cold blooded), so when and if it gets too cold their bodies slow down and stop. Otherwise, ants may indeed rest, but you won’t see it: they will rest in their nest where it is safe, not outside where they can get eaten at any moment.
Do ants explode when they fart?
Ants poop, but can they fart? There’s little research on this topic, but many experts say “no” – at least not in the same way we do. It makes sense that ants can’t pass gas. Some of the most effective ant killers cause them to bloat up and because they have no way to pass the gas, they explode – literally.
What is a female fart called?

What happens if you fart in a jar?
It is very concentrated and smells much of fart. If the fart is contained in an airtight jar, as OP asks, then it cannot diffuse. It stays concentrated, and keeps its smell, for years and years on end, since it cannot escape.
Can you mail a fart?

Can you freeze a fart?
