Wind down with me as we learn about the Red Imported Fire Ant—the empire-building chemists. You can listen attentively, let your mind wander, or fall asleep to the wonders of wildlife.


We'll explore their anatomy, complex social rules, venomous stings, living bridges and floating rafts, and how these tiny insects managed to spread across huge portions of the southern United States and the world.
