Rangrang ants

Description:

Rangrang ants live in trees, build nests of leaves. By combining the leaves, they are able to form a nest in a tree, so that it can support a much larger population. Interesting stages of development. First, the workers find their own locations in the area suitable for expansion of the colony. When they find a match, they spread to the leaves of the branch and pull leaves from the sides. Having succeeded in bending a portion of the leaf, the workers at the nearby leaves move towards it and pulled it together. If the leaves are wider than the size of ants, or if you need to pull two leaves at once, the workers form a living bridge between the two points that will be put together. After that, some of the ants in the chain climb back next ant, thus shortening the chain, and the ends of the leaf is. When the leaves are shaped tent, some of the ants continue to hold the leaves with leg and jaw, while others return to the old nest and bring to it the larvae are raised specifically. The worker larvae rub back and forth on the unification of the leaf, using larvae as a source of silk. With silk secreted from the hole below the mouth of the larvae, the leaves were attached at the required place. That is, the larvae are used as a sewing machine. These larvae, which were raised for silk rope, have silk glands larger than average, but easy to carry because of its size smaller. The larvae give all the silk for the needs of the colony, rather than using it themselves. Instead of slowly producing silk from silk glands, they secrete silk in large quantities at a given moment, and not even build their own cocoons. For the rest of his life, worker ants will do anything normally done for their larvae. As seen, these larvae live only as "a manufacturer of silk". How ants can develop such cooperation has never been explained by scientists. Another thing that can not be explained is how this behavior first appeared during the evolution of the suspected person. The basic principles of evolution can not explain how things are so sophisticated and useful as well as the phenomenon of insect wings, the eyes of vertebrates, and other biological miracles can grow through the evolution of living things first. This is a dead end for defenders of evolution. Of course not logical to say that one day the larvae congregate and said, "Some of us have to produce silk to meet the needs of the entire colony, so let's adjust our weight and silk glands for it." The theory of this kind is certainly not a theory intelligent. Therefore, we must admit that the larvae have been created by knowing what to do.
