Movie 7: A movie showing how ants can be compared to fluids
Figure 14: Ants are poured from a teapot into a teacup. When fire ants are gathered into a group, they exhibit fluid like properties such as being able to flow from one container to another.
Movie 8: Fire ants are scooped out of a bucket containing a floating fire ant colony and placed into a separate container. Note how the ants “appear to be dripping” off the ladle that is used to scoop them out of the bucket.
