Why do we continue …
Why do we continue to destroy, exploit, and pollute the world while millions of our species still starve in poverty regardless? Why do we let this capitalist system exploit the masses of our species for the short-term profit of a small elite class? Oppression by one class over another is by no means an inherent human trait, we humans have compassion, empathy, and the ability and often drive to behave righteously.

How elegant is our world, this is an excellent display of the forces of natural selection, and biological evolution which have worked on our planet for millennia.
Nature is a treasure, and we humans who have complex cognition, higher thinking and societal organization, advanced technology etc. We should use our advantages to better this great world…and ourselves in the process.

There are several ant species that do capture others and put them to work e.g Polyergus breviceps through suppressive hormones I believe. In any case don’t get hung up on anthropogenic moralising for ants… just wrap yourself in knots and that goes for anything else in the animal kingdom.
