eusociality

Eusociality is a social structure observed in some animal species, characterized by cooperative care of offspring, division of labor, and often overlapping generations. In eusocial groups, individuals may take on specific roles, such as workers, soldiers, or reproductive members, enhancing the survival of the community. This is most commonly seen in insects like bees, ants, and termites, where non-reproductive members assist in raising the queen's offspring. Eusociality represents one of the highest levels of social organization in the animal kingdom, highlighting complex social behaviors and evolutionary strategies for survival.
