ANTS IN TUG OF WAR

A trio of ants are locked in a tug of war over a fly as they pull the bug by its legs. The feisty ants, all desperately trying to keep hold of their dinner, are eventually joined by a small colony of weaver ants as they all bid to take the prize home. The struggle over the horse fly was photographed in Tiruvalla, Kerala, India in the back garden of Sreekumar Mahadevan Pillai. The 39-year-old Indian neurosurgeon says: “There is a huge teak tree leaning over my terrace which hosts millions of weaver ants.
