Milton Levine - Inventor

Milton Levine, who co-invented the classic Ant Farm toy, died on January 16, 2011 at the age of 97 in Thousand Oaks, California.

He first conceived of his toy in 1956 while watching ants during a Fourth of July picnic. It reminded him how he had collected them in jars when he was a kid.

He and his brother-in-law E.J. Cossman came up with the idea of a transparent habitat that allowed people to watch ants did tunnels in sand between two plastic panels.

More than 20 million units of "Uncle Milton's Ant Farm" have been sold over the years. He often joked about how the toy allowed him to finance the college education of his children.
