Natural World: Empire Of The Desert Ants
Against the Chiricahua Mountains of southern Arizona, Empire of the Desert Ants takes an in-your-face look at the violent world of desert honey ants. Charting the fate of a single colony over several years, the ants battle all-comers for survival and dominance over the small patch of desert that is their world. Both the big picture and every minute detail are captured in this dramatic and fascinating film using the latest camera techniques and visual effects. Macro-photography shows the heart of their epic confrontations and the very core of life in the honey ant colony. Battle plans, defensive strategies and 'team' tactics are presented using the latest battlefield technologies. Also revealed are parallel worlds dominated by hidden forces - chemical weaponry, ultra-sonic sound, pheromones, ultra-violet and polarised light - as well as detailed characterisations of the different members of the colony.

Hats off to the tiny cameraman who films those ants
“The queen won’t witness these momentous events” and we don’t either apparently
Technically this video can be flagged for misleading title.
Love it! Ant love forever! ❤
Kind of a big lead up to no flying.
Talk about horrible security, in preventing the beetle from getting in and eating their young.
RIP to this honey ant colony. They got decimated by another group of ants.
Hats off to tiny camera
It's amazing how they manage to film such amazing footage inside the nest without destroying or causing any significant damage to the nest. Only if antscanada could get such great footage of his ants
I live in the desert in Arizona and one day I was riding my bike down these dirt trails and I saw a red on the floor and there were nothing but ants and there were flying ants everywhere i had to ride my bike through it really fast it was horrible but now that I think about it this is probably what was happening
Ants:
Ants: you're eating my kids!
Staff: So how many flying ants will be put on screen?

Makes me so very happy to see other people besides myself, like these type of documentaries.
My only question is how do you film these things by taking micro camera down deep.
