I've heard that orangutans use tools, but have you ever heard that orangutans "heal themselves"? This is not a science fiction story, but something that really happens in our nature!
On May 3, according to the news of the global network, recently, there was a big news that made people's eyes shine - the orangutans actually use medicinal herbs to treat injuries! This is not my nonsense, there is a scientific basis. According to The Guardian, the research team was tracking down a male Sumatran orangutan named "Lacus" when they accidentally discovered that the buddy actually knew how to self-medicate.
It is said that Lacus, this orangutan, is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and he fights with other orangutans, and his face is colorful. The researcher thought he would find a place to hide and lick his wounds, but he didn't expect this guy to find a magical vine and start munching on it. Before he finished chewing, he didn't swallow it, but dipped his fingers in the plant juice in his mouth and gently applied it to the wound.
This operation is even more delicate than that of us humans! Do you think this orangutan has become a sperm? Not only that, but Lacus repeats this action until the entire wound is covered with herbs.
A few days later, the researchers were surprised to find that Lacus's wound had actually begun to heal! and healed quite well, leaving only a small scar. After research, this plant actually has multiple effects such as antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antifungal, antioxidant, pain-relieving, and even anti-cancer!
This is a truly breathtaking discovery. Do you think this orangutan is gifted? In fact, a lot of wisdom in the animal kingdom is beyond our imagination. Although they cannot speak, they have a unique survival wisdom and instinct.
Netizens also exploded when they saw this news. Some people joked: "Fortunately, I evolved quickly, otherwise I would have been on the tree!" Others exclaimed: "The natural world is really amazing, and the power of life is too powerful!" Some people even wondered: "Without human intervention, will these orangutans become new humans in a million years?"
Well, speaking of this, I suddenly remembered a saying: "Nature is the best doctor." This journey of "self-healing" of the orangutan not only shows us the tenacity and wisdom of life, but also makes us full of curiosity and awe about the mysteries of the natural world.
So, the next time you're injured, think of Lacus, the clever orangutan!
