Those impalas are smart. Get away from the fruit. Thank you for that video and the information. Captivating as usual..

Amy, when we scour through elephant droppings we often find the pods of the torchwood tree,more or less intact, undigested save for part of the skin. I understand that an elephants digestive tract is not as efficient as ruminants and so the pods may in fact help in the breakdown of roughage in the stomach rather than have a huge nutritive value. Birds and crocodile do ingest grit and stones to aid digestion, so perhaps ellies do the same. Great blog, well done.
