Raising a child is a full time job, even with one mouth to feed -- so just imagine all the work it takes to rear hundreds of thousands of them. Ants can be found nearly everywhere on the planet, but behind each one of those six-legged crawlers is a mother who tenderly brought it into the world, just like yours did. In this amazing up-close footage of an ant nursery, we see the great care given to birth a member of the colony. Though they may be numerous (and occasionally unwelcome), it's important to remember that even ants have a mother, too.
