you know how humans bleed when we get a cut well the bloodwood tree in South Africa is just like us cut into it and you'll see a red sap oozing out ew officially known as teroc carpus angolensis this tree isn't just cool to look at people use its timber for all kinds of things like furniture and tools it's tough and shiny and termites don't stand a chance against it they even say it has healing powers treating all sorts of ailments well I'll stick to the doctor's office though but the bloodwood treat isn't the only one
capable of this trick over in Australia there's a eucalyptus tree that produces a red sap called Kino it's response to getting hurt Kino turns into a solid amber-like substance when it see sunlight and it's super astringent in taste so even if you're feeling adventurous please refrain from giving it a lick
