nests are nearby. In fact, when Amazon ants have to migrate, they have
these slaves do all the moving work, thus they are able to move very
fast. 76
Ants can defend themselves against even very large living beings due
to their ability to leave traces. A good example of this is the ant’s strug-
gle with the dragon fly. Ants who spot the dragon fly gather together
thanks to their tracing systems, then they attack and kill it. In another
example, they are able by the same method to beat a caterpillar that at-
tacks another member of the colony even if it is much larger in size than
themselves.
It may seem normal for one living being to attack another or to fight
with it for the purpose of defending its life, or for food. However, if a
creature is acting together with others in its species while fighting the
enemy, and if they communicate war tactics to each other, then we must
inevitably focus on this subject.
To decide upon tactics, to fight accordingly with a certain order and
discipline, and to use a communication system to protect such order and
discipline, are all acts that need intelligence, planning and judgement.
For instance, today’s war strategies have been determined on the basis
of the life-long experience of human beings. Army officers go through
training in academies to learn such tactics. They also need specifically
developed communication systems for the implementation of their
strategies.
However, the soldiers that we talked about above, who determine
the discipline and attack tactics with chemical communication systems,
who attack the enemy together and who, if necessary, sacrifice them-
selves at times for other individuals of the army have not had any train-
ing and do not have any accumulation of information. These beings we
are talking about are ants that are only a few milimetres long and do not
have the ability to think.
MASTERS OF CAMOUFLAGE
The secret of the ant species "Basiceros" was not solved until recent-
ly. Researchers had come across these only once and had never found
any ant similar to them again. Therefore, they were thought to be a very
rare species.
