Deep in the tropical forests of Central America lives an extraordinary creature - the leafcutter ant. Unlike other species of ant, leafcutter ants produce a diverse range of sounds and scientists have finally managed to tune into this unique world of communication. These tiny creatures live in one of the most complex societies known in the animal kingdom and they play a crucial role in the wellbeing of the forest. But the leafcutter's garden-like home is no Eden; nature presents many obstacles and delivers daily challenges to these miniature workers' lives.
