For the male ants of this species, chemical signals are so strong that they do not pay attention to the death of their children, or even the appearance of the predator right there.
According to researcher Rob Dunn at the University of North Carolina (USA), most of the male ants die without being mated, so trying to "love" the dying god ants doesn't make them waste more time than usual. .
Tschinkel, a researcher, told LiveScience : ' Insect intercourse is easy thanks to simple signals. In many insects, including ants, chemicals are the main stimulus to attract males to mating. '
