  • Some ficus species are strangler figs. The seeds are eaten by birds and pass through the digestive tract undamaged. If they are excreted on the branch of a tree, they remain stuck there thanks to the mistletoe-like slimy seed coat, sprout, thrive and proceed to strangle its host tree

    Here in South Africa we have many species of ficus. One is the 'Wonderboom' North of Pretoria. The tree propagates when the branches hang down and where they touch the ground a new tree grows. The tree was once able to shelter 1000 people, but a devastating fire in the late 1800s destroyed part of the growth. It's estimated to be over 1000 years old, and fortunately now a national nature reserve.

    I can't remember when I've seen such a fascinating Documentary on nature, and one particular specie of tree at that. Thank you so much for this composite of interesting information. You've broadened my mind and my scientific vocabulary, (Epiphytes). I must remember to try and squeeze that into a conversation sometime. "Seen and good Epiphytes lately?" Or, "Those new employees, hang around the water cooler, like a heap of Epiphytes." Thanks!

    As usual Whites ignore the existence of others. The narrator talks of Cooke as the discoverer of Australia. There were millions of Black : "Aboriginal" people in this land but since the British decided to exterminate them, then they never existed. The callous off-handed way the narrator dismissed people.

      In the name of the white race, I would like to lay claim as the discoverer of the river of tears that you have cried. Seriously though, you have a nature documentary, and you're focused on semantics. Look for the beauty in the world, rather than trying to find everything you can wrong with it, and you will be much better off for it. . When you search for the wrong doing of any race, trust me you will find it. It isn't a race thing, or a white thing, it's the human race.
