Van Helsing observed a bustling ant colony. “Ants are master builders and highly organized. They construct intricate underground tunnels and chambers to protect their queen and larvae.”
He explained, “Ant colonies work like a single super-organism. Each ant has a role: workers gather food, soldiers defend the nest, and the queen lays eggs. Their teamwork is a perfect example of social insect cooperation.”
