My colonies of Macrotermes gilvus termites have officially reached the thriving stage! Their fungus comb which took months to establish has finally arrived and I loved looking at the termites' hard work. This termite farm and home pet project started as a fun hobby, which became a home experiment and has now blossomed into a scientific and relevant project. Come explore and discover the secret and intriguing world of these fungus-farming termites, one of the few animals that scientists know of that are active farmers. Hope you enjoy this week's termite-y and fungus-y episode! Ant love forever! This video was shot in 4K Ultra HD resolution.
