A flood hits a fire ant colony in the Amazon jungle. An amazing chance to see footage on how the species has adapted to water to protect their queen.

Reminded me of a moment from the Simpsons, where all the characters in the Springfield are trapped in a net as they roll down a hill into the water. Anyone remember that?

Well, it reminded me of a story my buddy was telling about when his neighborhood flooded. He said he watched as a cow that was wading in water up to its neck get hit by a flotilla of red ants like this one. Basically, it was one of the most pathetic, disturbing things he's ever seen.
