Fishhook ants are amazing insects that deserve our respect and admiration. They can help us understand the evolution of social behavior, the mechanisms of collective intelligence and the principles of biomimicry. They can inspire new designs for materials, structures and robots.
If you ever encounter them in the wild, don’t try to touch them or disturb their nests. Instead, observe them from a safe distance and appreciate their beauty and complexity.
