This video from Kruger National Park in South Africa. Today's daily update video shows the grooming service provided by the oxpeckers for all the antelope and giraffes in the national park. It is exciting and informative and showcases these birds' important role in maintaining other animals' health. In many of the videos I captured in the park, the oxpeckers can often be a nuisance to the animals, but they know the benefit, as they would not be able to remove the ticks themselves. It shows these birds on different animals, such as impalas, a giraffe, a kudu bull and a zebra.
