Ant Dungeons!

From the “you gotta watch this” files. Here’s what you get when scientists fill an ant’s colony with cement. Pure. Dungeon layout. Gold. The wow factor starts about half-way through.

I’m so going to put Giant Ants into my next adventure!

Found via Dark Roasted Blend. Which is, btw, a most awesome site.
