  • Résumé

  • Hello, world! Have you ever asked yourself if humans are the only animals who have best friends? Are you curious if any other species has a democratic government? Do you wonder if the creatures who eat poop enjoy the taste? If you have, then this is the podcast for you. Join your hosts, Gordie and Stephen, as they bring you the fascinating answers to the world's silliest nature questions. Each episode they'll interview real-life plant/animal experts and uncover bizarre behaviour, obscure facts, and incredible stories in their search for the truth. They won't stop until they get to the very bottom of these nature mysteries. And maybe, just maybe, we'll all learn a bit about what it means to be human along the way.

  • Do Ants Vote?
    Jan 22 2025

    Ants build structures. Ants wage war. Ants even do agriculture. But ants also live in large, organized colonies that experience challenges, disagreements, and even natural disasters. This begs the question:

    Do ants vote?

    Seriously, are humans the only ones to figure this out (kinda)? Do ants have their own form of democracy? Do other animals? Is there an ant George Washington?

    We interview Dr. Aaron Fairweather, an entomologist specializing in ants, to find out more about our 20 quadrillion closest friends (that's how many ants there are on earth. Crazy, right?).

    Want more nature facts from Aaron? You can find them on Bluesky, X, or email them at fairweaa@uoguelph.ca
