    Animals congregate in huge colonies for many reasons. Icelandic puffins form nesting colonies of more than a million, sharing information about food and reducing the odds of individual attacks. Social spiders in Ecuador collaborate to capture enormous prey. For others, communal living provides caregiving options -- or even the opportunity to build enormous cities.
