These anta have always fascinated me. My old biology books and field guides would talk about how other ants would find them in the tunnels, and basically tickle them until they secreted some food. Yknow like when a buddy makes you laugh so hard that milk comes out of your nose, and then the buddy drinks the milk, because hey, free milk.
If a colony finds, attacks, and overcomes another colony, they will usually kill every "enemy" ant and often take these live food storages back home with them
I'm not sure they would with fluid inside. A lot of resin preservation relies on the object being dehydrated. Otherwise the water separates from the object in some way or another over time (rot, breakdown, etc)

You have to wait for the Altaroth's to look like this before you kill them or you won't get the right drop.

I remember watching a survival show that featured these ants as emergency food. The guy just picks one up and sucked out the end of the ant.

Australian honeypot ants fed on coloured sugar water. This is their evolutionary method of creating living larders.

I bet the ants are not very happy about it. If ants had emotions that is.

Yeah I feel kinda sad for them honestly, these poor fellas can't even try to get away :c

"Anyone want ants for lunch?" Me, looking at Jeff, to see if he is actually an anteater.
For those that don't get the reference.

With a bit of epoxy, you could make those ants into jewelry.

If you embed them in resin then cut and polish the resin it should turn out like those spider/scorpion domes that were popular in the 80s ?
