African animals appetite for alcohol

This is a real video (2 min. 49 seconds) from a French documentary about Africa. I am afraid you may not understand it.

Have you ever heard of tree called Marula? Sounds like an Indian name-eh? This tree is native to African jungles and braes abundant fruits. The fruits are juicy and pulpy.

Well, the juice part of the fruit-it is actually alcohol. Don’t ask me if it is a scotch whiskey or rum.

The tree is also known as ‘elephant tree’ and the video will reveal why it is called so.

Thirsty animals eat this fruit and see what happens next!
