Butterfly talks to ants

[Wood~Ant]

Many insects may mimic others by looking like them, but here is a butterfly caterpillar which actually talks to ants and makes them think it is one of their own larvae

They can vibrate/talk just like the Queen of the species can!

I think if you were to disturb a nest, the workers would defend it just like there own larvae or Queen.

Strange, as in nature they would usually get something back.
EG: Ants and aphids-- Ants get honeydew, Aphids get protection.
In the case of this Blue Butterfly grub, it's just cheating the ant!

Its called a blue butterfly and it uses the ants to feed it and then it escapes the nest and flys away.
