Chain-gang
So yeah, we spent about 30 minutes just watching these ants form their home. They reach out to leaves and form a chain by biting each other around the abdomen, and then position the leaves in a sphere-like shape. They then hold the leaves together while other workers fix the leaves in place (with saliva maybe?) It was just amazing to watch them all work together.
