Ants are fun!
From the minute you stock your
Ant Farm
®
brand live ant habitat,
a new world opens up in front
of your eyes... a busy, bustling
world that shows you that ants
are a lot like the nicest people
you know!
Many of the most famous people in the world have
been ant watchers. Lord Avebury, a world-famous sci-
entist, once wrote: “When we consider the habits of ants,
their social organization, their large communities, elaborate
habitations, and their roadways... they have a fair claim to
rank next to man in the scale of intelligence.”
And that’s true! As you study your ants, you’ll find that
they plan their world very much as we plan ours. They
engineer their homes and highways carefully. They
seem to consider artistic form as well as function in
their building. The highways and tunnels in the ants’
world are always arranged in smooth curves and their
hills are well balanced.
This little book tells you all about your Ant Farm brand
habitat... how to stock it, how to feed the ants and how
to take care of them. Read every word carefully, for if
you treat your ants properly, they’ll let you in on their
secret world and keep you fascinated.
