Gorgonian and dolphins!

Dolphins rub themselves through gorgonian coral colonies. Its believed they know that the mucus of the Corals have antimicrobial properties.

How crazy is that.

They also have anti-inflamatory properties. Scientist are currently trying to find ways to use them for humans. We just need to watch animals more. They could teach us a lot.

While I can't vouch for youth today but when I was younger my grandma and grandpa taught me exactly this. Watch animal x if you are ever lost in the woods you won't starve. That and how to look at trees and bushes to make temporary shelter without setting it up the wrong way only to get blown to hell and back But yes good ol Mother Nature - she is one wise woman that one.
