Trippy Wildlife Fact of the Week:
You will never see an antelope eating at the same plant for more than about ten minutes. Plants have a defense mechanism against being over-browsed by wildlife. They release a chemical called tannins which is an astringent bitter taste and forces the animal to move to another tree to eat. Tannins also naturally occur in grapes and help age wine. | | | |
