>In the aftermath of Hurricane Luis and Hurricane Marilyn in 1995, a raft of uprooted trees carrying 15 or more green iguanas landed on the eastern side of Anguilla – an island where green iguanas had never been recorded before.[60] These iguanas were apparently accidentally caught on the trees and rafted 320 km (200 mi) across the ocean from Guadeloupe, where green iguanas are an introduced species.[22][61] Examination of the weather patterns and ocean currents indicated that the iguanas had probably spent three weeks at sea before arriving on Anguilla.[61] Evidence of this new colony breeding on the island was found within two years of its arrival.[61]
>reproductive ants have wings
It's truly a mystery
They can only fly short distances, and IIRC some species it's only the males.
>land bridges
>floating on shit
>hitching rides on other animals
idk man why just ants? Even super remote islands are poplated by all kind of shit, life finds a way
There is record of this happening on modern times?
yes
All the fucking time? Or do we forget the uproar that happens every time a pest insect hitches a ride on a boat from China or something? Joro spiders and those lantern flies come to mind.
surely no ants would float on driftwood across oceans, that would be crazy. Ants hate driftwood.
And hitch a ride on birds and other flying animals. And be transported by wind over long distances
>eurobeat starts playing
When this happened
This.
Along with ants hitching rides on human boats and setting up shop wherever they dock.
>he still believes in plate techtonics
Schizos
>The continents are free floating on a giant ball of lava that stays hot because it just does ok and they just happened to float into distinct regions peopled by wildly different races and cultures and this is all happening over a span of time so large that you literally cannot imagine it just trust me bro it's science
Yeah... We're the schizo's.....
>Yeah... We're the schizo's.....
literally true
I hope you are trolling otherwise neck your self
the continents were still connected when they first evolved, I guess?
Ants have been around for around 150 million years
The Earth is only a few thousand years old. Read the Quran.
I don't think you realize how ancient ants are
The continents were separated when ants first appear
okay then how did it happen?
>ants cant build boats
Yes they can
