Elliott Webb

Discover how it's not unusual for animals to become intoxicated in the wild, with pigeons and foxes known to stagger around after eating fallen and fermented apples. Zoologist James McKay tells Elliott Webb how any alcohol consumed by animals, like in humans, affects the kidneys and the ability to stay hydrated. Image credit: Rocky Vaughan-Wilson
