Incredible show of power by forrest Ants

Watch as ants create a daisy chain, maximizing their pulling force to drag off a huge worm that will soon be dinner.
New research published early this year showed that the neck joint of a common field ant can withstand 5,000 times the ant’s weight. Previously, ants had been photographed carrying dead baby birds, so it was estimated they could carry around 1,000 times their weight. But the new numbers surprised even the researchers.
