Humanity and capitalism?
Why is it bad when ants do it?
They run in that circle until they die because they’re all following the one in front of them.
You probably could and that might redirect their focus for a bit, but I would think if they’ve lost the scent/trail back to their hill (which is the original cause for the death spiral in the first place), they’re permanently fubar’d, since they’ll never find their way back unless by accident. It might just delay the inevitable.
They’re just following the trail of pheromones ahead of them. It goes around in circles so they’ll just walk and walk until they die of exhaustion.
Never heard about it so had to read up on it, it’s as obscure as a rat king to me.
Current sience says it’s very rare, but can happen naturally. There are multiple confirmed modern sightings.
Ants follow eachother in a line so they don’t get lost on their way back to the nest. When they’ve lost track of the scent for any number of different reasons back to the nest they will follow the ant in front of them for guidance eventually turning into a “death spiral” seen in the picture. The ants are lost and will never find their way home and will march to their deaths.
This death spiral/“ant mill” is actually quite short, though still deadly - in the worst case scenarios, a death spiral can be literally kilometers long, some ants might not even make a single revolution around it, which is kinda terrifying to think about.
I love when the deers play with the mooses and geeses

Sounds not too different from capitalism and humans in 2023 in general lol
