Brazilian ants are hard-workers. They carry big leaves and fruit and ran across big roads. When they carry big leaves or petals, they look like tiny yachts. It’s a very pretty scene.

Then, I was wondering if there is such a thing as “slacking off” in ants worlds. Could there be any ants that pretend to be busy but in reality, are just walking back and forth, or eat the food for the Queen on the way back home?

It also occurred to me, why don’t I see these yachts in the US…If there exists a concept of slacking off in ants worlds, the American urban ants sure look more lazy than the Brazilian ones. So are Japanese ones too. Makes me wonder what this means…
