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

752 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?

They will, this happened in my front porch a couple weeks ago. An ant was carrying a dead fly (very impressive to see), and it yeeted the fly off of a step and then just jumped off to grab it and keep moving it.
