Ants take on Goliath role in protecting trees in the savanna from elephants

Ants take on Goliath role in protecting trees in the savanna from elephants
Read and rejoice. Lots of little ants protecting enormous trees from giant elephants!  Think about it when your local  plutocrats want to grasp yet more of your community resources. If ants can do it so can you.

Further Imbalance

Having reflected on the imbalance between the three contributors to every commercial enterprise I must point out an equally disgraceful imbalance in the application of Freedom of Information legislation - at least in my own country. The legislation gives the public the right to information on a wide range of public enterprises - and none whatsoever on information about commercial enterprises. So if you wish information about your local public hospital the law supports you but if it is a private hospital  the law is silent. Why should commercial enterprises enjoy this right to secrecy? I leave you to speculate.
