But how many ants are there? […] “According to our estimates, the global ant population is 20 x 10¹⁵ – that is, 20 quadrillion animals. […]”
Divided by 8 billion yields the 2.5 million per person.
But can they fuck up the environment the way we do? I don’t think so
I don’t think the average person could defend themselves against 2.5m ants. They could overthrow us at any moment.
Do I get prep time?
An indefinite amount. They could come for you today. They could come for you in 43 years. You’ll never know until you see the wave marching across your shoes.
All we have to do is get them going in a circle
So most of them are just living because of reckless abandonment!
Citation needed.
And there would be even more if it wasn’t for those damned kids!
Where are my personal ants?
Mike stole them
Where can I claim mine?
Just stick your bare hand in this bag and grab whatever you need. Did I mention that your share are all bullet ants?
Don’t listen to this guy. Stick your hand in MY bag. There’s no bullet ants in here. Just reach in, and grab the handle inside, and shake it to release the ants.
Yeah girl, shake it real hard! Just like that! Yeeeeaaaahhhhh…
I’ve got a mechanical device that will shake the ants out … I’ll just crank it up to 10,000 rpm so I can get my ants fast and be on my way … let me just adjust the carburetor so I pull start the engine to get started … HOLD STILL!!!
username checks out, wait does this work here?
Nope. Sorry. Nobody has any idea what you’re talking about. Like is the username buying something at a store or…!?
It may sound like a lot, but that’s at maximum just 12.5kg (around 27.5 pounds) of ants.
I remember reading once that world wide, all the ants on the planet weigh collectively more than all the elephants put together on the planet.
It’s actually more than the combined mass of all wild birds and mammals.
Another fun insect fact: there are more species of beetles than all of the other species combined.
12.5 kg of ants is, like, a LOT of ants.
Well now I want ants.
what am I supposed to do with 2.5 million ants??
Give each and every one of them housing and health care. 🖤🐜
If you can train each one to bring you a cent you’d be a rich man!
You’d need decoy ants too. So no one can follow their trail.
most of them are pretty small.
There are 2.27 popes per sq km in the Vatican.
Global population per capita is 1
What are the odds of this? How do people deny a creator!?
At an average weight of 2.5 mg per ant that’s 6.25 kg of ants per person or about the weight of a 6 month old human baby.
“The average person has one Fallopian tube.” ―Bo Burnham
And <1 ball
I didn’t get any. :( Can someone share their extras? Redistribute fallopian tubes!
I hope mine are fire ants!
All ants are fire yo
Anyone else have a mental image of the guy in John Carpenter’s Prince of Darkness who says “pray for death” as his body falls apart into a pile of ants?
