Milli-t-ants ...

What a rubbish header ... These aggressive ants worked together perfectly to drag a heavy-looking millipede across the pathway at a large stream near Phu Rua NP, Loei. I think this is a different species of millipede to what I have seen before . It was a lighter brown than others I have seen, with yellowish stripes and was around 8 inches in length. It was difficult to get good photos as the ants were dragging the millipede rapidly, using their teamwork skills.

Order: Diplopoda
Family: Unknown
Vernacular name: Unknown
Scientific name: Unknown
