Scientists actually did this to ants to determine whether they navigated by counting their steps
What the fuck they cut some of the ants legs and made them walk on stumps. Of course they're German.
What the fuck this is MY trivia to bring into convos this is THEFT
(Ants also do complex geometry by instinct and they even triangulate positions with the sun as reference, they are amazing)
Wait a tic counting? there's a science explanation or 'counting' is the layman's term for what they're doing? I'm asking cuz i was under the impression most animals don't know numbers at all
Whole wiki page for it
