Roaches Prefer To Eat Together, Like A Family
Posted by Justin on June 10th, 2010
Add communal to the list of adjectives used to describe roaches. New studies show that the disgusting insects will choose to eat together even if other options present themselves.
Cockroaches prefer dining as a group it seems. New research shows the pesky critters cluster and remain feeding on one lump of food even if another morsel exists nearby.
The result demonstrates that cockroaches possess a collective decision-making process previously thought to exist only in highly social species, such as ants and bees, according to the study scientists.
Family dinner, yet another trait that roaches share with the cast of Jersey Shore.
