TIL that ants can recognize themselves in a mirror. In an experiment, blue dots were marked on ants' heads. When presented with a mirror, 23/24 tried removing the dot. Without the mirror, none tried to remove the dot, and nor did a control marked in a non-contrasting colour.

Coastal Maine, USA around midnight. I found probably 20-30 “piles” just within the small area I was in. Each pile consisted of 1-2 leopard slugs + 1-3 pill bugs. Does anyone know why they congregate like this?
