No living thing could match their tons of muscle and gigantic size. One alone could crush a thousand colonies of ants simply by taking a few steps. And the ants were powerless to stop them. But the ants had one thing going for them: Teamwork. Each ant had an important part to play in the structure of its colony. Each furthered the riches of the colony in terms of food and shelter and protection. The dinosaurs, on the other hand, were loners—each beast for itself.
Today, dinosaurs are extinct. But ants are still about, still planning, working, cooperating with one another for the good of the colony.
