"A survey of 169 trees found 11 latrines—all of them in the major forks of the strangler fig tree (Ficus tuerckheimii). A camera trap at one arboreal potty captured 17 different species visiting the spot. The findings, published March 16 in Ecology and Evolution, suggest that treetop toilets might provide communication hubs across mammal species." https://www.sciencenews.org/article/cloud-forest-mammals-poop-tree-hub #Nature #Behaviour #Trees #Animals
