"Did you know that ants invented complex social interactions, agriculture, and slavery millions of years before humans have? While ants might all look alike to people, there are actually more than 12,000 species of ants worldwide! They are highly adapted to their environment, and without them the world would not be the same. Learn about their social behavior and how they interact with other organisms and their environment from Dr. Merav Vonshak, who studied the impact of human disturbance on ant communities during her Postdoctoral Fellowship at Stanford University. She is founder of the South Bay BioBlitz Club and is teaching at San Jose State University. Photo by Rio Lecatompessy via Unsplash."
