I was tunneling thru sand with my brother, and reinforcing it as we went, and when I got near the end of what we had already shored up, I noticed the 1×2’s and the cardboard we used (just a dream, we would never use that of course in real life. Haha…) was starting to stress and sand busted thru and started covering me.
Anyway, I yelled to my brother to help me, then the dream ended.
So, I woke up and I got to thinking, and about ants, and how they tunnel, and as far as I know, there are few collapses.
Then I took it a theoretical step further. If there were collapses, do they have crisis teams that will go in and save them? Or do ants really care?
Is there like a committee set up for ants, and by ants, to investigate any types of tunneling deaths or accidents?
Something like the NTSB (National Transportation Safety Board), but for insects.
Anyone here ever think about that?
