Эти муравьи обладают врождённым мастерством хирургов, видимо, потому что они не умеют производить антибиотики. Исследователи заметили у них любопытную особенность: когда один из муравьёв получал серьёзную травму ноги, его сородичи отгрызали такую радикальную методику лечения, что значительно сокращалась. Помогала выжить 90% муравьёв с ранами в районе бедра.

В то же время муравьи с подобными ранами, но находящиеся не в муравейнике, а в изоляции, доступа хирургии выживали только в 40% случаев. Работает это так: когда муравей получает рану бедра, его товарищи удаляют всю ногу. Делают они это довольно осторожно, постоянно облизывая и очищая рану, и кусая сочленения ноги с туловищем, постепенно отделяя конечность.
