Discover Ants

@greenshieldcert @uarizona @CorrieMoreau @AntNetworkSM @uwcurrielab @horacezhl @realDailyAnt @DrAdrianSmith @AntsProject @antscience @antmuseum This is awesome!! I completely agree with the importance of IDing. I create customized #ant identification keys and ID aids for educational and corporate use, if you're interested! 🐜🤓😎

Earn CEUs by learning how to identify ants, their biology and reduced-risk management options from Dr. Dawn Gouge of @uarizona on December 1! Register at bit.ly/GSCAntID22 #antID #antIPM #webinar #IPM #pestcontrol

I would like to interrupt your day with the fanciest cockroach I have ever seen 🤩👀🤩👀 They're definitely on their way to a party. 🥳 Mardi gras cockroach, Polyzosteria mitchelli en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyzoste…

I am deeply saddened to share that a former member of my lab in Chicago, Lynika Strozier, died yesterday from #COVID19 complications. Lynika was an amazing person with a passion for science & education. Please give to her GoFundMe for funeral expenses gf.me/u/x737pr

Do you need an 1hr 15min mix of songs that mention ants to listen to while you work? Of course you do. It's a non-stop jam. mixcloud.com/reade/taxonomi…

Getting ANTsy? Got ANTs in your pants? Ant Picnic is a tech free #CitizenScience Project from @MagSorger with @YourWild_Life studentsdiscover.org/lesson/ant-pic… There are over 15,000 species of ants - find out what's in your yard or is also #StayHome with you! Find out why they're there!

Our paper on the discovery of a new ant species in Denmark by children doing citizen science was just published: peerj.com/articles/8850/# (Also my first first-author paper, so much celebration is being done) #CitizenScience #Ants #Alienspecies

This sucks. A giant SciComm outlet must have liked my title enough to be VERY INSPIRED by it. Then they cover the same research my video summarized by RECREATING our key visual and using the same stock footage to boot! Mention our video? No. Link? No. Proper citation? No.

#TheLionKing, a tragic tale of bottom-up ecosystem collapse caused by the introduction of non-native leafcutter ants, overshadowed by a side plot about a pride of superstitious lions who blame the whole ordeal on hyenas.

How do I know #citizenscience works? Today we are talking about relationships among organisms and a student says Ms. P there r 2 ant species working together to benefit each other so that would be mutualism. My students now ❤ ants. @MagSorger

#antpicnic is AMAZING!!! @MagSorger #citizenscience

Checking out the students #antpicnic squares. They did a great job and learned a lot! @MagSorger #citizenscience #dorealscience @River_Bend_MS

@MagSorger When having an ant picnic you must have a quilt. Here is @wfmsjl8 and my ant picnic quilt. Science and ELA collaboration! #citizenscience

Check it out: @DoRealScience helped me create an awesome video introducing our Ant Picnic Data Analysis lesson: youtu.be/pIVOTzcmsZo - Full lesson at: studentsdiscover.org/lesson/ant-pic… @naturalsciences @NCState_AEC @CODAPdatasci @NSTA @ScienceCenters @DiscoverAnts @TheScienceHouse

Learn about ANTS today in the Daily Planet Theater from researcher @MagSorger at 1:30pm! naturalsciences.org/calendar/event…

Wait for it...

Ant Picnic PD with great teachers!!! #discoverants @MagSorger @DiscoverAnts @Der0uin

Ready for #antpicnic #citizenscience project & data analysis workshop at @TheScienceHouse tomorrow, bright and early! :-) With @kdbedell @jlpainte @Der0uin 🐜 #studentsdiscover @kenanfellows @naturalsciences @YourWild_Life @NCState_AEC @DiscoverAnts

Check out the (leafcutter) #ant parade through the @DrAdrianSmith lab for Mardi Gras @naturalsciences

Fun evening @naturalsciences - #ants marching through the @DrAdrianSmith ant lab for our Mardi Gras event! :-)
