Why ants won’t jump from hights to shortcut their way?

644 views

Ants wont die from being dropped from any height, their weight to surface area is so low that the ant will never hit a velocity that is terminal, so my question is why they won’t just jump from heights to reach certain points faster? Are they scared of heights?

Imagine if you were using a map to find your way around. Suddenly, you teleported to somewhere you have never been. You would be lost and would need to find a street sign, ask someone, or find something you’ve seen before to know where you are on the map. It could take a long time to figure it out.

Ants jumping from heights would get lost. Also, they’re not very good at asking for directions.
