Wombat gut microbiome (= microbe community in the body) has highest relative proportion of cellulases (12%) among those from mammals, likely reflecting diet (grasses) & hindgut fermentation (rather than foregut like cows & kangaroos) #poopScience #2022MMM https://t.co/vLi1eyPhGu https://t.co/ogvua2jZWV

@NatGeo Or maybe the secret is in their gut metagenome? https://t.co/hNrkOTpXay

@armelh c'est le cas au sens où c'est un régime très très frugal. Mais sinon c'st la symbiose avec une flore intestinale particulière qui lui permet de détoxifier les feuilles https://t.co/ki7wGNbnzA

Last week we learned about the microbiome of Eucalyptus specialists (Koala and Wombat; see: https://t.co/n3WIo2SmwS) Now we have the microbiome of Bamboo eaters Lemur/Giant Panda/Red Panda https://t.co/FoXsy0P4kD
