Honeypots

Honeypot ants are truly one of nature's marvels, known for their unique ability to store food in living reservoirs within their colonies. These specialized workers, called repletes, swell with nectar and honeydew, providing sustenance to the colony during scarce times. This incredible adaptation allows honeypot ants to thrive in harsh, arid environments where food can be difficult to find. Their fascinating social structure and survival strategy make honeypot ants a captivating species, blending the wonders of nature with remarkable resilience.
