    Wildlife are not dumb

    We have two orange trees growing, one a valencia and the other as navel. The sulpher crested cockatoos only touch the valencia. They pick the oranges open to get the seeds BUT they never touch the navel tree because they do not have seeds.

    Yep

    Hello from Brisbane.

    A similar thought occurred to me watching baboons climbing electric fences around orchards in southern Africa - you would see them carefully standing on every second wire.

    Elephants, on the other hand, just started running from a distance....

    Cheers,

    What about a young lady pushing a pram,and with another small child in tow,stepping out onto a crossing,without looking up to see if there is any traffic coming.

    Not the smartest wildlife.
