Green Scene: A common type of ant breaks the rules of biology
10 September - 8 minsA new study shows how orangutans in Indonesia learn how to build their nests by closely watching their peers. Also scientists have discovered that a common type of ant breaks the rules of biology. Ant queens of one species can produce male offspring of a whole other species to breed armies of hybrids. All to discuss with Dr Ruth Freeman Director of Research for Society For Research Ireland in this week's Green Scene.
