I had this little novelty skull carved from bone so I put it in with the ants as a decoration. Took some amusing photos and video:




But then I forgot to take it out. 

Now it is gone. 

Every time I looked they were biting on it... but they do that to *anything* new. Today I gave them a leaf of lettuce from my garden that had aphids on it. They ate the aphids and chewed up the leaf. Do I have ants or puppies?

Also, do you think they ate the bone? Might bone be a good "activity" or "enrichment" for ants?
