Ant It the Truth

Scientists say that ants lift 50 percent of their body weight, and, boy, they do so, because ants are such hard workers. Well, my grandson, who has an ant farm in his room, found eight of the many ants unexpectedly outside of the glass farm, just wandering aimlessly on the table.

"Grandpa," he said, "look! Why are these ants here?"

"Well, student grandson," I replied, "probably because they were judged by their supervisor ant to be lifting only 20 or 30 percent of their body weight."
