What happens
On the savanna in Kruger Park, the kids aren't the only ones playing with a ball. A dung beetle does a handstand and rolls its own (poop!) ball along, while a rhino carries oxpecker friends and hippos laugh in the waterhole.
Fun facts
- Dung beetles do a handstand and push their ball with their back legs!
- Dung beetles can use the Milky Way to steer at night!
- Oxpecker birds ride on rhinos and eat the bugs on their skin.
