    :bug-facts: Wasp and and bees might be different about this but an ant queen is treated like a reproductive organ not a ruler. The ants organize collectively and spontaneously with no need of a ruling power. :kropotkin-shining:

        I assumed wasps were a bit more individualistic thus cared about their Queen more or something but I guess even if they're as bloodthirsty they still know better then brits. :edgeworth-shrug:

      Yeah, ant colonies will continue to dig tunnels, forage for food and take care of each other without a queen. There will just simply be no more new ants to replace them. The colony will keep chugging along until the last ant dies of old age.

        until the last ant dies of old age.

        I have bad news for you about ant-on-ant violence...
