Zombie Ants

That's right, Zombie Ants!!! Ahhhh run for your lives. So just what in the hell is a Zombie Ant?

According to The Christian Science Monitor- a parasitic fungus manipulates an unfortunate ant, filling its head with fungal cells and changing its muscles so the ant can grab a leaf in a death grip just when and where the fungus wants it.
