About

The queen ant is often considered the leader of an ant colony, but some say that ant colonies don't have leaders at all. The queen is the founder of the colony and is usually larger than other ants, with wings. She lays thousands of eggs to ensure the colony's survival, and may send worker ants out to get food and care for the babies. However, some say that the queen doesn't actively control the other ants, and instead stays underground her entire life. Instead, ant colonies are governed by decentralized mechanisms, with each ant following simple rules that lead to complex group dynamics. Ants also perform peer reviews, constantly "smelling" each other to see if they belong to the colony, teaching each other how to work, and holding each other accountable.
