Chimps Discover New Antibiotic!

from Today's Creation Moment

The Aspilia shrub has traditionally been used for treating wounds and stomachaches, but when researchers observed chimpanzees eating the leaves, further discoveries on the Aspilia’s antibiotic properties to fight bacteria, fungi, and worms were made. The chimps’ remarkable behavior raises the question of how these animals discovered the plant’s medicinal qualities in the first place.
