Perakp Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 I believe ants are fairly intelligent. They have been around for ~150 million years. intelligence does not equal survivability, humans are the most intelligent species, and we are also one the youngest Let me rephrase it: I believe ants are fairly intelligent and they have been around for ~150 million years. Ants use other species for their own advantage, for example they collect honeydew from aphids. Leafcutters use the leaves for farming edible fungus. Individual ants specialize in differents jobs in the nest and as a whole they are very effective in whatever they do. To some extent they have some problemsolving abilities and they are even intelligent enough to have wars between colonies. Just because they don't use screwdrivers doesn't mean they aren't intelligent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
