Scientists create freakish man-made monster ants with huge heads and jaws!

[dank69]

baby got back!

That is the head, not the ass.

Well, so at least we know there'll be a SyFy Friday night movie in a month.
Give them a week or so to write it, a couple days to film, and then a little time to wrap up in Post and advertise and whatnot.

Thats the first warning signs of STDS

Scientists discovers magnifying glasses to study South American Fire Ants. First results promising. Pictures inside

Scientists accidentally modify fire ant DNA. Fire ants now spew a flaming napalm-like liquid. Then the monstrous-headed soldier ants move in to take a crispy snack back to the nest.


And here's another thought: What if its brain grew too, to help fill in that big ol' head? We're paving the road to an intelligent ant with powerful weaponry built right into its face.

It might be fun being a child of one of these scientists though.
"My mom is creating an awesome monster ant from ancient DNA."

It still pains me that they canceled MST3K.

Looks like a bobble head ant.

 

[zinfamous]

I for one welcome our new monster headed ant overlords.

dude, no reason to even stretch the quote. Here it's the original, verbatim!

Kent was right! D:

 

[spacejamz]

all of the normal ants are gonna be pissed if they have to widen the holes inside the anthill for the new super head ant...wonder if he can even go inside the ant hill....

I would burn his face off with a magnifying glass

 

[Binarycow]

WHY?

 

[randomrogue]

Why would someone do this? WTF?! I really hope that asshat loses his grant and gets his ass beat.

ftfy

I'm more concerned with who's the better fighter. Can you imagine a worldwide killer bee vs massive army ant war? Ants would probably win. They could invade bee hives whereas bees couldn't easily invade ant hills.

Ants vs Bees, great idea for a new SyFY special

 

[TakeNoPrisoners]

That big head ant is pretty badass.

 

[Apex]

I know a bunch of kids like that, heads so big they look like lollipops.

 

[ImpulsE69]

I'm not sure if it's all the old horror movies, but this disturbs me.

 

[Gibsons]

pff. My magnifying glass is still big enough for it.

 

[Gothgar]

Seems like a bad idea

 

[Paul98]

This is really cool, along with a lot of the stuff we have been doing with genetics recently looks like things are really progressing quickly as of late. We look to be learning a lot, it's not going to be all that much longer before we can start making very useful changes.

I would assume they want to work with this to see if it can be used to treat genetic defects in humans by activating old genes.

 

[GotIssues]

Had one of those half-awake dreams the other night that involved one of these (with a softball sized head) falling from the ceiling and landing on my hand. I jumped out of bed, scaring the living hell out of my wife and my cat.

 

[alkemyst]

you guys only preparing for zombies are so fucked.

My foot is still much bigger than it is.
