The authors reveal that death feigning can be induced experimentally and highlight the need for additional studies on this topic.
In the accompanying blog post, first author Danon Clemes Cardoso shares pictures of the field work behind the study.

🆕review: "Death feigning in #ants", Danon Clemes Cardoso, Ítalo Cordeiro Canguçu Alves, Maykon Passos Cristiano, and Jürgen Heinze review the literature on feigning death in ants, which has received little attention so far.

Nice review! Death feigning is an interesting behavior. Here is an example of Amblyopone australis playing dead after I opened her nest - after a short period of not moving at all, they wake up and run away quickly
