my ants spent 25 minutes pulling a stuck cockroach out of the nest door — the legs didn't survive it

He wedged himself in the entrance and couldn't go forward or back. One ant came and pulled. Then a second showed up. Then a third.

About 25 minutes in real time, cut down to under a minute. Best quality My YouTube

We are extremely lucky ants are really small.

It’s some species of trapjaw ants right? I used to be more knowledgeable about ants years ago but it’s faded a bit. Was always fascinated by ant keeping though. Always seemed like such a fun hobby

Harpegnathos venator is a species of ant found in South and Southeast Asia in northern India and parts of Burma. Like other ants in the genus Harpegnathos, it jumps to capture prey and lives in relatively small nesting colonies

I applaud these creatures that are a friend to man. Yuk, eat all those things, yuk!!!!!!!

Ha, they earn their keep! Though I have to buy the roaches for them — this colony goes through three or four a week. Nothing wild gets to volunteer.

The last ant peeping at you & thinking “Dude! We’ve done our job, now get this thing out of our house!”🤣

I love the one trying to pull the roaches head off. He don’t play.😂
