Description

How do birds know how to fly in formation? Why do flying ants all seem to appear at once? And what on earth is termite snow?!


This week wildlife legends Steve Backshall, Lizzie Daly, and Sarah Roberts dig into the critters that operate as one.


We meet the team players: from cicadas synchronising their song to ants that perform surgery on each other - and survive!
