Zombie Ants Are Real... And Icky

I had to share this, because I find it both disturbing and interesting.  What's amazing is that a special fungus can actually take over an ant's brain and they will go to a place that is idea for the fungus to flourish and then die, essentially feeding a new colony.

Check it out.  The article isn't kidding when it says it is not for the squeamish.  They're only ants but I feel bad for the little guys.
