By the way, Andreas, this looks wrong.
Leafcutter ants actually practise agriculture (of some sort of fungus), not cattle-breeding.
They don't eat insects, but the fungus that they grow (which is still amazing).
Also, There are actually hierarchical systems in nature, dominance, subordinance, and hierarchy can be observed in a lot of species, where one leader takes decisions for the other, and even some kind of "elections" which are usually fights for power (but how is that so different?
)
You might want to adapt your (great) speach a little.
I agree, Andreas is amazing but the ant analogy needs some work, lots of examples of hierarchical system in nature, gorillas, chimps, lions, wolves all have a alpha male at the top, seems like hierarchical to me.
Being a bit nit picky but keep up the great work Andreas.
