Summary In the episode we look at how animals swarming together create a collective intelligence. Huge shape-shifting shoals of herring use swarm intelligence to detect predators. Billions of alkali flies form a rolling wave to evade the gaping mouths of gulls. Millions of free-tailed bats form a living tornado and still manage to keep from colliding with each other.
