Thankfully thats a comment true only of Atta and not of humans!
Have you ever looked at male Atta and thanked whatever force is out there that they live only long enough to breed. Whilst the Atta queens are well proportioned and look amazing
the males have a head that is hugely too small in proportion to their body.
Now before any girls on the site mention anything to do with brain size comparisons it is important to note that we men probably dont see anything wrong with a life spent being fed by thousands of women whilst lounging around in the house and going out with a literal bang as our penis explodes whilst getting it on. That doesnt seem to me like a reflection on brain size at all.
Males look ridiculous!!
Post here for any notes or records of sightings in the wild. Behaviour, nuptial flights etc, everything about these ants from the Tropics!
