I have a theory as to why the other colonies are so shy. You introduced the first colony way before the others and the first had time to send out scouts too which likely filled the space with foreign smells and that is probably why the other colonies are being so very cautious.

@sleepingcity85 10 місяців тому
Im pretty sure that the first scout filled the arena with its scent. Thats usually a good idea if you want to bring foreign animals together - use neutral space for meeting the first time. Since ants are pretty much always marking their territory it would have been a good idea to let them all in the arena at the same time.

Two hypothesis. First is that the opening of colony one was different than the rest. Second hypothesis is that colony one's scent already claimed the common area so the other colonies didn't want to enter another colonies area. A better experiment would have been to connect all the colonies at the same time rather than allowing the first colony to claim the central area beforehand.
@ninjascott559 2 роки тому

@simonepozzoli 2 роки тому
To prove that the scent was the cause we could repeat the experiment letting the first colony to get out before others (as he did here) and see if the other colonies get out at some point (would be interesting also to understand when they get out and if they do it all at the same time). Then do another experiment synchronizing the opening and compare the results. I don't think the difference in holes matters, all colonies except the fist acted the same way and they had different openings. Do you know if he continued with the experiment?
@gefferg4516 2 роки тому
Yep as soon as the holes were connected to the 2nd-7th colony the first thing they would notice is a foreign ant’s scent. If you release all of them at once I suspect no ant would reach the jelly. Some might take a few steps outside the hole right away but then smell 6 different scents and retreat

@krz0ne1 2 роки тому
I think the problem was colony 1 was introduced ahead - thus giving their scent to the whole 'arena' which the other colonies are 'respecting' . In other words, the other colonies are probably detecting 'outside' as already the territory of colony 1. I am fascinated how this one has played out after these few days. If there haves been no changes, may I suggest removing colony 1 (leave others as is - thus rest having 'equal' starting point)?

Not a bad theory. I say leave colony 1, add more food of different varieties in more than one spot? Thus making the others more excited to get out and find it.

How fascinating was the ending bit??!! I mean, incredible. We rarely see colonies interact in a great quality video, but when we do, its hundreds of ants everywhere. There is no way for us to trully understand what if going on and the voiceover is usually more of a storytelling ,rather than a real description of event. But here?? Here you can see its not chaos at all, there is intent and reason for everything that happens, the ants dont really stand around waiting or being stupid, they react instantly and with purpose. The grab, the steal of the nectar, the escape, the run aways, the emergency quick cleaning... everything. Trully amazing and, while I had huge appreciation for ants and all other animals for that matter - this is just another piece of the puzzle that makes me understand and appreciate them even more. Thank you! Amazing work!

@You_do_not_exist_Jack 2 роки тому
That little scuffle seems like a good sign to me. Regardless, you can’t be too careful. I’d disconnect all but two colonies and just give them more time to intermingle. That way, we’ll learn more about these ants’ inter-colony behaviours, but not risk all colonies should they turn out to be more aggressive
@namAehT 2 роки тому
It's at the regurgitation of food was more of an offering than a panic response. The fact that there was no retaliation from her original colony shows that none of the colonies are strong enough to go on the offensive.

@pyritethesandgem3841 2 роки тому
@ everyone scrolling through the comments on this: please LIKE so we can boost it to the top and make sure AC reads it. I agree that it looks like they may be able to integrate, but, like you said, we don't want to risk everything. The responsible move, I think, would be to separate them... But also, we don't want to make the other colonies look weak, either. Maybe pairing them up in different enclosures would help. That way, they aren't overwhelmed with the scents of six other colonies all at once. Here's how I would divide it: 1 🤝 3 2 🤝 4 🤝 5 6 🤝 8 5 is included in a set of three because introducing her later, when there are tons of other ants that might act aggressive towards her, would be more dangerous (at least, I would assume, based on my limited knowledge of ant behavior), so it's best to try and get her to integrate with a smaller group that can still provide for her. If all goes well, the three groups can meet up once they have worked their own situations out, and ideally, that would put each colony under less stress.

I have to believe that they didn't kill the interloper because they knew that she wasn't a threat. If they had wanted her dead, she would have been killed right off the bat. They wanted information, primarily where she got that full gastor from. Keep them together! This is going to be VERY educational! Besides, letting all but one go would leave me wondering how they turned out. This is a new epic story that HAS to be told!

Colony 1 had a very defined opening but the other colonies had their entrances partially covered by the cotton, which might had influenced them into staying inside. Another factor is that when #1 was opened, there were no traces of pheromones in the environment. By the time the other colonies were opened, #1 had already laid several pheromone paths and the other ants did smell that when exploring the possibility of venturing out, so they stayed inside as a natural safety. Really interesting insight into the lives of ants, thanks for sharing!
@bighero8514 Рік тому
Yes I thought so too…. He should have made their opening entrance properly cleared….
@DINGD0NG... Рік тому
Yes and no The smell, yes, could have scared them, but in nature they would probably feel a lit of different colonies scents too About the entrance, it may have bored them a little, but you can see colony #1 dragging pieces of cotton with their feet when they enter the chamber so they don't really seem to care, and also ants are used to having to open new passages, and they could feel with they antennae that there was an opening there, they could feel the air and the smell of food from outside. We'll never know for sure why they didn't come out at first lol
