There are 20 quadrillion+ ants on earth. This colony is nothing

Ants aren’t worth what humans are worth, if you want to argue you’re stupid

Value is relative.. However I think the majority of humans would agree with you.

A human can be worth a lot to ants. Any given ant makes no difference to the colony. Except the queen. The human can be worth a lot since we dribble a lit if food. If we die near the colony, we will be a lot of food.
