Let's say there's an anthole; 6000 ants live there. There's a picnic, and 1500 ants are sent out to gather as much as they can. This guy sees all these ants, and sprays this can of bug-spray, and kils all 1500 of them.
It's a huge loss for the anthole. In this case:
Can the ants count?
Do they notice they've lost a quarter of their colony?
Do they grieve?
I know elephants grieve the death of their fellow elephants. What about ants?
