Eco_Ant:
An ant to some and a cockroach to others. The subterranean termite is an important part of the forest ecosystem, recycling nutrients, bringing mineral-rich sub-soils to the forest floor and aerating the soil. It also pays no heed to the bounds of property, destroying the artifices of human settlement.

- natural resource commons
- social science research
- indigenous knowledge
Background:
- consulting on land use planning for First Nations in northwestern Ontario
