- After waiting months for monsoons to hit, the first heavy thunderstorms of 2023 brought the desert to life, and dozens of ant species had massive mating flights. I was on a mission to collect ant queens, and I'd end up being more successful than my wildest dreams.

Hello, would you like to do a collab sometime? I’m in Cali and I absolutely love ants. I mostly keep camponotus and other kinds but I wanna go down to Arizona with you and find some ants and go black lighting for honeypots. If you are interested let me know! Thanks.
How long until it’s that season?
What month was it when you went to the Madera Canyon
"July 2023" are the fourth and fifth words of the video, believe it or not.
Do you sell these queens if so, I would be happy to buy them
here in my area there is not much species/ colonies sadly..
how many aggressive pheidole species do you think there are in the US?
almost every Pheidole species is aggressive, of which there are 100+ in the US.
Is that a tornado? 0:18
no, we don't really get tornadoes in AZ. That's just a very normal thunderstorm.
@@ArthropodAntics so it’s just a really small rain core
@@Kentuckyants-shortsAs a storm chaser I can confirm, not a tornado but a rain core, generally tornadoes in Arizona come from non rotating updrafts and are generally LandSpouts.
@@Antsant you’re a storm chaser I am a storm scientist and it just looked like a very blurry tornado
@@Antsant and also how does a rain core get that small?
13:53 what dorylinae male is that???
Neivamyrmex, probably opacithorax or something.
@@ArthropodAntics somehow that didnt look like a neiva male, lol
Can I have Rhea for free
no
