🧬 Real Ant Behavior
This simulation models authentic ant colony behavior: ants leave pheromone trails when carrying food back to the nest,
follow existing trails to find food sources, and navigate around obstacles. The stronger the pheromone trail,
the more likely ants are to follow it. Watch how they form efficient highways between food and nest!
🎯 Interaction Tips
Click anywhere to place food and watch the ants discover it. Add obstacles to see how they navigate around barriers.
Notice how successful foraging creates stronger pheromone trails that attract more ants!
