Build and customise your own ant world with this great Ant-O-Sphere 8 Pods set! This giant system mimics the actual layout of leaf-cutter ant colonies in the tropics. The 8 spherical pods and the tubing that connects them together are life-size replicas of the chambers and passageways that the ants would normally construct underground.Some of the spherical pods are tinted red so that the ants believe they are in darkness or very low light, allowing them to be easily observed going about their daily routine. Soil plants and worms can also be added to the pods, creating a fascinating mini eco-system for children to study and learn about natural science with. Comes complete with instructions on how to find ants in the wild.
