This is a video from a French documentary about Africa. You may not understand the narrative, but the video is a hoot and self explanatory.
There are Marula trees ( (Sclerocarya birrea) which grow in Africa. The fruit of this tree is used in the production Amarula Liqueur.
Once a year, the tree produces a very juicy fruit, which contains a large percentage of alcohol when naturally fermented. Because of the shortage of water at this time of year, as soon as the fruits are ripe, elephants and other animals come there to help themselves to protect from the heat and get nourishment.
Because of the marula tree's association with elephants, the distiller of Amarula has made them its symbol and supports elephant conservation efforts, co-funding the Amarula Elephant Research Programme at the University of Natal, Durban. For marketing efforts it produces elephant-themed collectible items.
Watch the attached video. You can easily tell who overindulged...
