In the 15th century, Karn survived invasions of Zeltok ants that slaughtered the rest of his people. He was rescued by Zeltok gorillas, and lived with them in their fortress.

In 1465, after time traveling from the 23rd century, James T. Kirk, Spock, Sankey and Joe Wells visited the planet in the Galileo and met Karn. When phalanxes of ants attacked the fortress, Galileo fired missiles to keep the ants at bay, but it was a losing battle.
