Astonishing Army Ants: The Most Important
Predators in Neotropical Forests
Army ants are the most spectacular ants in the
Western Hemisphere. This video record guides the
viewer expertly into their savage and alien world. It
is an outstanding presentation covering the life cycle
and behavior of the Large Swarm Raiding Army
Ant, Eciton burchellii.
The DVD is filled with facts explaining why these
ants are so astonishing. Their queen lays 100,000
eggs every 35 days for her entire life of five years. They eat so
much, a colony must move move often to raid for food. Emigrations
are amazing with almost every ant carrying a larva. Colonies
are immortal - each comes from a previous colony.
This truly astonishing DVD was produced by Carl W. Rettenmeyer,
the world authority on army ants, who has virutally lived with
these amazing insects during 35 years of research in the rain
forests of Costa Rica, Panama and Ecuador. Ages eight to
adult; NTSC version; running time: 55 minutes.
