  <description>Depicts ants as social creatures living in complex societies. Shows ways they control their environment.&#13;
     Ken Smith sez: This is probably the most genuinely entertaining of all the John Kieran's Kaleidoscope films.  The poor ants are anthropomorphised to the nth degree; we even hear The Wedding March when the queen and her drone fly away from the nest.  Kieran's patter has never been more meandering; he sounds like a befuddled uncle narrating home movies.  Clumsy but enjoyable.&#13;
