Prehistoric Terror #2

Ceratomyrmex ellenbergeri (Terror Ants)

Despite their fierce looks, the terror ants were not actually that big, ranging between 1 and 1,5 centimeters, a similar size to many modern pavement ants.

(2/2) 🇮🇹 In Italy, rufa ants (red wood ants) use conifer needles to build their impressive nests 🌲🐜

🇬🇧 But here in the Peak District UK there are no such trees for miles away. And yet these #ants found their way, picking up lil birch twigs 🥹🐜🌳 #bugsky

(1/2) Travelling in the UK for an upcoming fantastic workshop in York next Tuesday...

... and guess what? We bumped into rufa #ants (aka red wood ants) while hiking in the Peak District! #bugsky 🐜🧬

They are literally chasing us 👀

🐜 The #LittleFireAnt, Wasmannia auropunctata, threatens #Biodiversity and #Agriculture across tropical and subtropical regions. One-way traps using an alarm pheromone can help capture these invasive #Ants, but how long do they stay effective?

Sometimes, the unexpected happens.
I promise to be a magnanimous leader for both humans and ants. You can trust me, I'm a doctor. I have a PHD. in ant leadership.

Enjoy your free ants, live through the peace antpocalypse!

Prehistoric Terror #1

Ceratomyrmex ellenbergeri (Terror Ants)

Hell Ants lived during the Cretaceous Period alongside the dinosaurs.
They are unique in that their mandibles move vertically unlike all living ants today. This gives them this unique terror look.

So somehow #DataCenters can be built for #AI with blinding speed, but high-speed rail for efficient, #human transport can’t be? Is anyone sure the robots aren’t already subtly in control based on who’s serving who and what need?

Phase IV (1974) is a cerebral, and visually stunning masterpiece of 1970s ecological sci-fi. This hypnotic, slow-burn art-house thriller approaches insect horror not as cheap B-movie schlock, but as an existential, cosmic puzzle. #ecohorror #ants #horror #horrormovies #horrorsky #horrorjunkie
