Aye-ayes tap on wood and listen for insect larvae inside
Madagascar’s nocturnal aye-ayes tap wood, listen for hollow larvae, then hook them out with an elongated middle finger — primate foraging that echoes bats.
Huge ears and thin fingers turn a tree trunk into a drum kit and a toolbox.
Knock, listen, extract. Evolution invented percussive pest control for the canopy.
