AMAZING PICTURES: 'super' Ant Lifts Millipede Many Times Its Size In Hunger Atta by ologboncrowny(m): 12:56pm On Apr 11, 2015 |
These amazing pictures show how this incredibly strong ant is able to literally tie its opposition in knots. The dramatic, up-close images, captured by a Bornean student, show the incredible power of the tiny creature. The weaver ant is able to cleverly balance the centipede which is much larger and heavier but ultimately helpless in the insect's grasp. Wrapping its legs around a minute branch, the ant holds the centipede by just one leg. Struggling to to escape the much smaller insect's grasp the hapless prey contorts itself into an array of shapes as it tries to escape. The tiny creature uses the poise of a circus performer or an American wrestler as it throws the centipede around. In its desperate efforts to escape, the centipede makes it looks like a question mark, a pound sign and other strange shapes. Student Frenki Jung, 17, from Sambas in Borneo captured the hilarious images. He shot the super close-ups in his front garden at home.

I have three questions concerning this picture.. (1) How come the ant is that big and you find carrying something like that millipede surprising?? (2) How come the picture of the millipede is somehow blurred?? Finally... (3) Is that millipede a baby millipede?? Doesn't look lyk it is so I don't see any reason why it should be almost the same size with a tiny ant or maybe its a bigger specie of ants. Op!! This is photoshop 1 Like |
