These Weaver ants (Oecophylla) can build a bridge in no time. Watch carefully how one part of the colony - the “engineers” - connect their bodies in a live chain to allow the rest of the colony to cross over.

This short video was filmed at someone’s backyard, and it illustrates perfectly how smart these little creatures really are. Fantastic and amazing footage!
