@Ebirah766 It is! And this is only part of it. In the upper right corner you can see a tube coming in. There's two tubes, both the length of several hallways (you can't take a photo showing both ends), that go to another area similar in size to this one with the plants they're cutting up. With the length and size, you can really watch how the ants work together, each having stations that they man. None go the whole length of the tube, they have meeting points where they'd deposit pieces for the next squad to pick up. I've seen a few similar set ups, but none a fraction this large or long.
