Normally, when people are sick due to some dietary reason, they
need special dietary correction treatment to supply what they are
lacking ... but some animals "know" what they need, and they go
looking for the remedy, which they "know" will help them.
Take elephants in Kenya and Uganda - they have been seen
eating volcanic ash, which just happens to be rich in vital minerals.
Mountain gorillas in Africa's Virunga range also do this sort of thing.
They have been seen climbing the sides of volcano ridges, digging
up the earth where it is rich in potassium and calcium.
Somehow they know they need to munch on dirt to stay healthy.
How do elephants and gorillas know they must eat dirt to maintain
their health?
Why would they even want to eat dirt?
Some of the gorillas have dug deep caves in their effrts to reach
the minerals they need - but how would they know?
God, who made living things, also gave them the in-built
wisdom to know what to do.
Ah ... breakfast!
