In this video you will learn why ants do not sleep all their lives.
Recently, however, this hypothesis has come under criticism. Video footage has been presented of ants in a static state. They literally froze on the road, even tilted their heads and their antennae stopped moving.

This gave rise to a new hypothesis. The hypothesis is that the ant's stopping for a few minutes is its sleep. This hypothesis also has a kind of confirmation. The ants that ran past the "resting colleague" touched him. But he did not react in any way or his reaction was inhibited. Studies on fire ants showed that ants had about 253 sleep episodes during the day. Each of them lasted about 1.1 minutes.
