New ant museum offers a lesson in ethics and order in modern life
Thailand's first ant museum is now open to visitors who are curious about how the ''super-organism'' can teach humans lessons about life. ''An ant's nature is simple but full of order and ethics, which human beings can learn from,'' said Ant Museum curator Decha Wiwatwittaya.
''If Thais perform our duty and hold on to morality as firmly as do the ants, our country will be filled with happiness and development,'' he said.
Does anyone have any experience of this?

Extremely bloody lucky that they haven't grown bigger as with our ( humanoids ) complete lack of organisation as a unit, they would wipe us out within a few months given the chance.Clever things ants... perhaps its just as well they haven't grown any bigger!
Thank Christ for size differentiation between organisms.

Ants use feramone to lay down trails, when they find food they travel back along the same trail back to the nest. This trail is then twice as strong, next ant recognises this and travels along it to the food (the trail gets stronger) all the ants then follow the strong feramone trail making the trail really strong until the food is gone. Simple yet effective....
