According to foreign media reports, the most dangerous life in the world is hidden in the Brazilian rainforest, but the enemies facing the ants in this rainforest are the most dangerous among them.Scientists from Penn State University in the United States recently discovered four new species of fungi during their in-depth investigations in the area.To the astonishment of scientists, these fungi can infect ants, manage and control the ant's body, and finally kill these ant hosts when they reach a space suitable for their own growth. According to scientists, these fungi can destroy an entire ant nest, turning it into a burial ground for colonies of ants.The corpses of the mass of dead ants were twisted, their mandibles gripping the veins of the leaves.This is their last move before they die, and this action keeps the fungus in a safe place, while the fungus releases new spores again to infect other ants.

Penn State University scientists David Hughes and Harry Evans discovered four new species of fungi while investigating in the Atlantic rainforest in southeastern Brazil."The organism is incredibly complex," Hughes said. "Whether it's releasing chemicals to control ants, or dispersing spores to find hosts in the rainforest, the behavior is pretty perfect." In 1859, the great naturalist Alfred Russell Wallace, a contemporary of Darwin, discovered two specimens of "zombie ant fungus" in Sulawesi, Indonesia.In addition, Wallace also collected similar specimens in the Amazon region and prepared to bring them back to London.However, Wallace lost all his specimens when the return ship caught fire and sank.The most important modern specimen of the phenomenon of fungus controlling ants was stored in a Paris museum, but was lost after being loaned to a Japanese researcher in 1941.

New research shows that some fungi have a backup plan after producing spores if the spores fail to infect ants within a day of being released.The spores on the ground will slowly grow a secondary spore.When ants pass by, they will immediately seize the opportunity to attach to the ant. Scientists have previously identified six species of this fungus in some of Australia's oldest rainforests. ——Sina Technology News, March 5, 2011 This is news, but in fact, it is old news.The mystery between the two, in this world, only a handful of elites will know. I know, luckily, I'm not dead yet.

Now, I tell you to know. Many times, living may not be the best choice.How we need to live is the question.
