In several species of ants, workers cooperate to retrieve large prey. Usually, one ant finds a prey item, tries to move … ants tries to move large prey, the ants change position and alignment until the prey can be moved toward the nest.

Models for the behavior of ants and pedestrians are studied in a unified way in this paper. Each ant follows pheromone … put by preceding ants, hence creating a trail on the ground, while pedestrians also try to follow others in a crowd for … average speed of the ants on their density, which can be well analyzed by the zero-range process. We also show that this …
