Morocco - Goats in trees

ENGLISH
Goats in trees are found mostly only in Morocco. The goats climb them because they like to eat the fruit of the argan tree, which is similar to an olive. Farmers actually follow the herds of goats as they move from tree to tree. Not because it is so strange to see goats in trees and the farmers like to point and stare, but because the fruit of the tree has a nut inside, which the goats can't digest, so they spit it up or excrete it which the farmers collect. The nut contains 1-3 kernels, which can be ground to make argan oil used in cooking and cosmetics.

Getter som klättrar i träd hittar man oftast i Marocko. Getterna klättrar upp i Argan trädet pga frukten som påminner om en oliv. Bönderna brukar därför följa getflocken från träd till träd, därför att inuti frukterna finns en liten kärna som getternas matsmältning inte klarar av. Endera kommer kärnan ut därbak, eller så spottar getterna ut den och bönderna plockar upp dem. Kärnan pressas till argan olja, vilket används till både kosmetika och matlagning.
