Eating wild fruit with Sakhile Dube - Safari and Surf - Wilderness Adventures

In this movie Sakhile Dube, guide and co-owner at Safari And Surf Wilderness Adventures, introduce guests to one of our local wild fruits. Whilst out on our guided walking trails we often find Green Monkey Orange( Strychnos spinosa). When ripe the fruit turn a yellow color and naturally fall from the tree. It is favored by birds and a variety of small and large mammals including bush pig, duiker, monkeys, baboons and elephant. Sakhile explains how to open the fruit and that the seeds are pretty large with a small layer of tasty flesh around it. It is also edible for humans although the seeds contain small amounts of strychnine.. This was believed to be a remedy for snake bites in African history with the strychnine causing the heart beat to accelerate against the retarding effects of the snake venom on the heart muscle.. Come join Sakhile on one of our guided adventures when visiting South Africa.
