Digging up a colony

I live in Canada, and I was wondering how you would safely dig up a wild ant colony. The AntsCanada page itself touches on it a small bit, but I don't know how you would dig up the whole colony without missing or injuring/kill some ants or possibly the queen.

Yeaah, this is a bad idea. Ant colonies should be started by foundress queens.
