What are the ways animals treat themselves?
1. The stomach wall muscles of wolves can contract automatically. When they suspect that they have eaten poisonous food, they will immediately contract their stomach muscles and spit out the contents of their stomachs, just in case.

2. Someone caught a crocodile, cut open its belly, and found that there were many thick blocks of wood, stones and other things that were not easy to digest. What's going on here? In fact, the reason is very simple: when the crocodile is hibernating, it is afraid that the function of its digestive organs will be weakened, so it eats something hard to keep its stomach working.

Monkeys in tropical forests will bite the bark of cinchona trees when they are shivering with cold. This bark contains cinchona cream, which is a specific medicine for malaria.

On rainy days, someone saw a pheasant and repeatedly forced its young to eat benzoin leaves. The leaves of benzoin are not chicken food, so its children don't like it. It turned out that the little slow-spitting chicken was drenched by rain and caught a cold. After eating this bitter leaf, its illness gradually improved.

Hot spring bath is a kind of physical therapy that people use to treat diseases. Interestingly, bears and badgers also use this method to keep healthy and treat diseases. American grizzly bears have a habit. When I am old, I like to take a bath in sulfur-containing hot springs and soak in them, as if I were treating senile arthritis. The female badger often takes the sore badger to the hot spring to take a bath and treat skin diseases.

6. After getting tinea, bison will travel long distances to the lake and "bathe" in the mud. Then climb ashore and dry the mud slowly. Soon, it went to the lake to "take a bath" until it cured tinea. Mud bath is not a "patent" of bison, but also a hobby of rhinoceros and hippopotamus. Because mud bath can not only cure diseases, but also prevent diseases.

7. A hunter observed it many times and found that the injured antelope always ran into a cave. After tracking the cave, he found that the antelope always clung to the steep mountain wall.

Interestingly, when the antelope left there, it was no longer as sick as before, but became radiant. Later, the hunter found a thick black liquid on the cliff, like wild honey. Locals call it "mountain tears", which is a medicine for wild animals to treat wounds.
