Simulating an Ant Colony for 1000 Days
- This is the Queen Anne and she has the next thousand days to create an empire But a rival colony is watching their every move and if she fails they will wage a war Destroy her home and take over mine Everything depends on her so over the first few days She creates a nest and if we look underground her first generation is underway But in the world above they will have to face competition and rival colonies Their journey has only just begun She will never leave the safety of her nest so she creates workers to serve and protect her But the enemy has already arrived A wild ant on the hunt for new territory This wild colony lives on my windowsill Oh my god, the workers act quickly they are beginning to build a wall They will stop at nothing to protect their Queen and pretty soon their entrance is sealed But War is coming and if they want to survive they will need an army and for that they need food They specialize in collecting seeds Their job is to transport them underground where they store them in a bakery Here they ground and crust the seeds into bread ant bread It is the perfect food for their growing larvae and 70 days later the results are clean There was a population boom all powered by their tiny bakery But the new workers are weak And clumsy They need sugars like honey Yet the honey stayed untouched for days until it was discovered by a wild ant Thankfully, she's alone Or so I thought They launched an attack This is nothing compared to the war yet.

- They are small, annoying, and a lot like my mother-in-law They scatter The ants begin to panic while many of the flies stand still If they don't move then they may remain unseen But this one makes a run for it And so does that one, and that one, and that one But this one was not as lucky He is the first kill of many Even though they caught most of the flies, a few managed to escape But the escaped flies were not as safe as they thought Out of the frying pan and into the fire The wild colony Their numbers have grown so large they've spread far beyond my windowsill And overtaken my animals My pets aren't a fan of their new roommate It seems our colony is not as prepared as I thought So over the next year our colony became an empire But the wild colony acted in parallel Both of them are fully preparing for war But this one escaped into my kitchen I didn't know why until I returned There was an all out war And the enemy had already made their way underground They have to save the queen So she is brought to the deepest part of the colony The rest of the nest had been abandoned And the remaining workers swarmed the queen But a worker was left behind, fighting to break free But the enemy wanted more The larvae One by one they begin to die A thousand days have passed A thousand days led up to this The queen began alone to create an empire But would they let it fall?
