Tales From the Ant World
by Edward O.Wilson
“Ants are the most warlike of all animals, with colony pitted against colony. Their clashes dwarf Waterloo and Gettysburg,” writes Edward O. Wilson. In a tour to such far-flung destinations as Mozambique and New Guinea, the Gulf of Mexico’s Dauphin Island, and even his parents’ yard back in Alabama, Wilson evokes his nine-decades-long scientific obsession with more than 15,000 ant species. He relays his brushes with fire, army, and leafcutter ants, as well as more exotic species: the Matabele, Africa’s fiercest warrior ants; COSTA RICA's Basiceros, the slowest ants in the world; and New Caledonia’s Myrmecia apicalis, the most endangered.
