Update
Hi everyone! The experiment is going well! The tropical rain forest was dry than expected for the season and the first days the ants were difficult to find, but I made it! The trials with the equipment are going well so far now. The ants don't resist too much the dry air (an average of 7 hours so far), however, this are still preliminary results because I haven't finished the trials. I could have the chance to sample the ants in a dry forest too, so I am collecting them at north of Costa Rica now, to have more data and compare. Will keep you updated of the advance! So far, this nice lay says hi!
