Fungal Diversity and Potential Health Benefits of Mycophagy in Chacma Baboons (Papio ursinus)
American Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 4, April 2026.Free‐ranging chacma baboons (Papio ursinus) in Nature's Valley, South Africa, of multiple age/sex classes eat diverse fungi (10 identified to species level, 3 to genus level). We assess potential nutritional, medicinal and ecosystem implications of consumption of these fungi based on human and other mammalian mycophagy literature.
