Exactly. There's a reason they're called "army ants".

Yes they do. Chimpanzee's have tribal wars, and even display racist behavior among chimps of other tribes. chimpanzee war

Ugly character design though. The ants in Bug's life were a lot more cute looking.

It's already been mentioned, but the movie ANTZ. You are either a worker or a soldier so the life of an ant is screwed either way.

Great, this topic reminded me of the war scene from that movie that scarred my childhood. It's not that bad when I watch it now, but for a six year old watching it at the time it was pretty graphic. But in real life, I doubt insects would have the mental capacity to have an all-out war. They'll certainly have confrontations from time to time though.

Animals plants and isects fight to survive. Humans fight to protect/better their way of life.

Yes, Ants Compete with Rival Conolies often, even to the level of outright warfare. I've also heard of Bee's ganging together and warring with wasp hives, but That was told to me by a less than trustowrthy classmate. :P

Except Ant Queens. Ant Queens are liven' the dream, they're basically female pimps that get fed everlasting amounts of food by a whole army of workers.

Watch red ants and black ants go at it. As well, marching ants will devour anything in their path.

Despite what some nature loving people think, many insect species do battle over territory.

I've seen two colonies of ants having a huge war in our driveway. Several times actually. They're the tiniest little ants, but there's so many it makes this weird brown area on the concrete. I'm always tempted to use some weapons of mass destruction on them, but figure what the heck - let them have their big important battle lol

You can blame Disney for that.
