Acacia ataxacantha debarked by Cape porcupine

Summary

[edit]
Description
Afrikaans: Ontbassing van 'n vlamdoring deur 'n ystervark te Skeerpoort, Noordwes. Na bewering verkies ystervarke om die bas van breëblaarspesies te vreet eerder as akasias of sekelbos. Die grys skorsbas is hier gevreet terwyl repe ligbruin floëembas onder die stam agtergelaat is. Die geel kambiumlaag is byna onaangeraak.
English: Flame thorn (Acacia ataxacantha) debarked by Cape porcupine (Hystrix africaeaustralis) at Skeerpoort, North West. Porcupines are said to prefer to feed on bark of broadleaved species rather than acacias or sickle bush. The grey cortex bark was eaten while leaving behind strips of light brown phloem bark under the trunk. The yellow cambium layer is almost untouched.
