The actual paper is in Biology Letters but I can only get you to the abstract: A novel interference behaviour: invasive wasps remove ants from resources and drop them from a height by Julien Grangier and Philip J. Lester.

I can't believe I missed that one or maybe I just didn't remember it when I got the Science article! But yes, I thought the video was a plus so included it and not just the abstract. So, sorry for the additional post without a reference to the previous one. I suppose I should spend more time on AntFarm and less time making quizzes for my Anatomy and Physiology classes...

Ah, that would be quite a suitable challenge for me, although I think Chris Wilson would do a better job and of course, AntsCanada did the great video version. However, it might help me keep human and ant tibia straight.
