One of my colleagues showed me this. There are fungi which consume ants and other insects in order to spread their spores. The video below shows an ant infected by Cordyceps unilateralis which alters the behavior of the ant, forcing it to climb upwards ensuring effective spreading of spores. How cool is that!
