Wow, even without the added colour, that is an amazing creature!
Love the Holiday colored ant...very interesting..
One ant to the other: "Hey, I died my hair today, you like it?" Other: "Hm..a little bit more red would have been better :)"
Are there any studies performed on what is the effect of the paint on the ants? I would think it will effect the mood of the ants right? I remember when I was a kid and playing with paint I had a great time :P
I dyed my setate! What do you think? Uggh! You look like a harlequin beetle.
