Hi, my name’s Jordan Dean and I’m a wildlife filmmaker based in Victoria, Australia. Ever since I was a kid I've always had a deep interest in the natural world, with a subconscious drive to help conserve and restore it.
Unfortunately, many people simply neglect the beautiful intricacies of nature. My mission is to change this by showcasing unique natural history stories in an educational, yet engaging way.
I tend to focus on the overlooked and underappreciated creatures of the planet. I am especially interested in ants, as just like us, they're highly social beings. The way in which they communicate and cooperate with other members of their colony can prove to be an incredibly complex and fascinating process to witness.
If you have any questions or comments, feel free to contact me via Email (link below).

Welcome to My YouTube Channel!
In this video, I announce the rebranding of my UA-cam channel. Changing the name from 'Ants Australia' to 'Jordan Dean.' Briefly, I recap my past works as a wildlife filmmaker and shed some light on what's in store for this channel in the future.

THE LEGEND HAD RETURNED 🎉🎉🎉
That ladybug just casually killed that aphid like someone picking up a free sample from Costco
They do look cute
you should build a giant australian vivarium!😅
Dear Jordan, We miss your videos😢
Now I know why no one watches this channel anymore and why he doesn't make videos anymore
Macro. ♥️ 👍
those are the most active larvae i've seen of any ant. most don't even move
It’s year two of living in the same house with my bug hating dad and secretly growing an ant colony…..how long until he’s going to find out 😬
Why did he leave us
still waiting for a new video :(
Aren't these illegal to keep in Australia??
I love your Bull Ants man. The most beautiful ants ever. Love how the larvae is wriggling around.
Jordan I really miss your videos!
Ants eat shit
“See what substrate the ants like outside” me: grass and some concrete sidewalk (and a tiny bit of dirt underneath)
I had always thought Myrmecia were the most beautiful ant species ever since I first saw them.
pls make a new vido i suscribed today for you
sad part is some ants get left behind because the bridge is made of themselves, sometimes the bridge breaks😂
What area of Australia did you find your Camponotus queen in?
Pretty much anywhere
Can someone tell me what is a ant that the queen ant is as big as a bird I saw a ant that is as big as a bird
I can tell this ant is smart dont want to miss with that 😂😂
BRUH 7 years ago
If you would put some building material in there (like sand or rather) you could learn how the ants like to live. You have provided tunnels, though you don't think entirely like an ant, so the ants used cotton to change the layout of the tunnels. Why? idk. But we could learn if you gave them some building blocks to work with.
There is the possibility that the queens that where killed maybe laid eggs that where too different compared to the rest of the colony. I mean since the big thing Argentine Ants has for them is that they are similar enough not to start fighting other colonies.
@11:42 on the left you see a replete moving eggs or pupae?
When’s your next vid ???
Sweet one 's😍
i use feeder insect
never in my life did I think I would ever see a GREEN ANT
That’s bull-ant🤬. 😏
When should you feed the queen
You should wait for a couple workers but not too much and then I think u can start feeding them
Grounded anyone?
can you tell me approximately how much myrmecia pyriformis costs? I really need this one.
3:29 oma gash the way they drink it is just sooo cute
9:37 More like, "Keep away from the trash!" GAHAHAHAHA!!
Ants are blind they use pheromones
Cute but deadly (They kill adult in 15 mins)
This was one of my favorite videos as a child. Thank you for the nostalgia.
their front view of their face looks cute
POST AGAIN PLEASE ,I MISS YOU SOMUCH
Come back! I want to know about the spider ants!
e, i’m now raising an ant colony
I've tried the test tube many MANY times, the Queen always dies!😢
Dont keep checking on her cause this will stress the queen
Try an easier species
I’m confused, are your designs flooding the nesting chambers? Can’t the ants drown?
Another great retired ant UA-camr 😔
bull ants- the dick neighbor of nature
