National Geographic Magazine: "Zombie" Ants Bite at High Noon, Then Die | Infected bugs are "chimeras: part ant and part fungus," expert says.

nationalgeographicmagazine:

A parasitic fungus is turning ants in Thailand into “zombies,” and now scientists have a better idea how and when the infection does its gruesome work.

Zombie ants? Look that’s all my nightmares squished together in a way that means I would have to use a flamethrower until every single one of crawly little fuckers was dead. Ya’ll need to fix that. Now.
