Fire Ants Turn Into Floating Rafts?!

Did you know fire ants can literally turn themselves into floating rafts when their nests flood? People in Austin spotted these creepy-cool ant islands drifting on Lake Travis after the recent floods. The ants bite and link together, making a living, stinging boat that floats until they find dry land. Wild, right? Apparently, only fire ants do this, and scientists are studying how they pull it off. Nature is next-level weird sometimes! #Science #Austin #FireAnts
