About this listen

In "The Empire of the Ants", a gunboat is sent to assist the inhabitants of a town in the Upper Amazon against a plague of ants. They find a species of large black ant which has evolved advanced intelligence, makes tools, and organized aggression. When the boat reaches the town, there is no one, so the captain fires two gunboat shots and returns downriver.
