SUMMARY:
- Before they become butterflies, caterpillars need not only lots of food but also not to become food themselves. And these particular ones gained a really awesome skill to protect themselves: they control ants.
- Braconid wasps sting caterpillars and inject their eggs into their bodies. Two weeks later, the eggs hatch, and wasp larvae emerge, taking over control of the caterpillar.
- Mamma wasp calmly goes about her business, knowing that her cockroach nanny will do all the work for her.
- Zombie fungus takes control over the insect’s mind and body, making it go to a very specific location with conditions that suit the fungus best.
- Spiny-headed worms take control over the pill bug’s mind and body, and a normally secretive insect leaves its cozy dark nest and heads out into the open. That’s when a starling notices the unlucky bug and eats it.
- Acacia tree produces two kinds of substances: one that’s really sweet-tasting and awesome for ants, and the other that repels them like nothing else. Juggling between the two, acacia can draw the ants where they’re most needed.
- Xenos larvae live their entire life in the belly of a wasp. A xenos quietly lies in wait until a wasp lands nearby, and then jumps it from below, quickly getting inside its body.
- Orchard spider wasps make the spider stop spinning its web and lie calmly while they get the necessary food. When that’s done, the spider has to sit back and watch these baby wasps use its web as a cocoon.
- When a mouse smells a feline nearby, it runs away. However, when a mouse eats something that contains toxoplasma, the tiny parasites make the rodent keen on the scent of cats.
