Мурахи сплять — короткими перервами | Ants Sleep—in Short Episodes

Ants keep moving, so it can seem as if they never sleep. But researchers have observed sleep–wake cycles in fire ants. In a laboratory study, worker ants slept about 253 times a day, averaging 1.1 minutes per episode—about 4.8 hours in total—while queens had longer episodes and more total sleep. These results are for one species and a laboratory colony, not a universal schedule for all ants. The illustration was created with AI.
