      Unless you’re talking about multiple species of deer.

        True, same with fish and fishes. English is fun

    • zakobjoa@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      The plural should clearly be meese.

      source
    • OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      The plural of moose isn’t deer!

    Why is it bad when ants do it?

    source
    • TofuWater@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      Ants follow eachother in a line so they don’t get lost on their way back to the nest. When they’ve lost track of the scent for any number of different reasons back to the nest they will follow the ant in front of them for guidance eventually turning into a “death spiral” seen in the picture. The ants are lost and will never find their way home and will march to their deaths.

        This death spiral/"ant mill" is actually quite short, though still deadly - in the worst case scenarios, a death spiral can be literally kilometers long, some ants might not even make a single revolution around it, which is kinda terrifying to think about.

        Makes you wonder why they’d shout hurrah in that situation.

        source
    • Triple_B@lemmy.zip ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      They run in that circle until they die because they’re all following the one in front of them.

      • JoShmoe@ani.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        Can’t you redirect their focus by dropping something nutritious nearby?

      They’re just following the trail of pheromones ahead of them. It goes around in circles so they’ll just walk and walk until they die of exhaustion.

      Never heard about it so had to read up on it, it’s as obscure as a rat king to me.

        rat kings are mostly fake though

      Would like to know as well.

      source
    • ehrenschwan@feddit.de ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      I believe they usually follow the trail of the ants walking infront of them so when they’re walking in a circle they’ll technically walk in a circle indefinitely.

  • scytale@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    I know about the ants, but what does it mean for deer?

    source
    • ickplant@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      Apparently it’s how the herd defends itself. TIL.
