John Henry Fabre, a French biologist, once conducted an experiment with processionary caterpillars. He took a flower pot containing pine needles – the caterpillars’ favourite food.

Around the rim he placed the caterpillars, one behind the other, until they formed a complete circle. The caterpillars began circling around the pot’s rim, blindly following each other but going nowhere. They did this for an entire week.

Then, one by one they dropped off the pot, hopelessly exhausted. So narrow was their vision that none of them broke the circle to go to the pine needles for nourishment.
