Does anyone know of any good ant youtubers that aren't antscanada? I need something ant related as anting season is pretty much done for the winter.

Ender Ants, Tennessee Ant Keeper, Esthetic Ants, Ants Anatomy, Urban Organisms has a few videos related to antkeeping, though he is kinda like LightsCameraAnts, and The Ant-Tarium all have great videos to check out.

Hello 1tsm3jack;

One of the ant YouTubers I like watching the most is “D Colony”. Great diy videos and insightful ant keeping videos. I enjoy them very much and I’ve learned a lot from them.

Homemade Ecosystems Is one of my favorites. He is more in the entertainment category, so less learning and more dry humor and stuff.

And many Carnivorous plants such as: Dionea muscipula (fly trap), Sarracenia x 'Fiona' ( American Pitcher plant), Nepenthese ventrata (Tropical Pitcher plant), and Pinguicula agnata x emarginata (Butterwort) (show off your plants here)

Godzilla thread

Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise! It has no commander, no overseer or ruler, yet it stores it's provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest. Proverbs 6: 6-8

I also enjoy watching Arthropod Antics.

There is something very zen about watching some entomology students flip over rocks and then identify what they find.

Plus the guy also did some travels abroad and shows some awesome tropical ant species.
