> "Agriculture", "animal husbandry" - I don't even know how to comment on that.
To give some examples of ant agriculture and animal husbandry, they cut and feed leaves to a fungus they farm for food. The fungus even communicates to the ants to switch to a different plant when the plant produces toxins in defense to cutting.
Ants herd aphids, protecting them from predators (ladybugs), secrete pheromones that direct and pacify them, and massage their abdomens to milk sugar dew.
