In the Jura Mountains of Switzerland lies a huge dome which houses thousands of ants. Meet the ‘formica rufa’, also called red wood ant or southern wood ant, native to Europe. Nests of these ants are very large, usually located in the woods and their dark tunnels can hold up to 400,000 workers and one hundred queens.
