The prime food source of the Bush hyrax Heterohyrax brucei is bush and tree foliage, both in wet and dry seasons; to reach it the animals must sometimes climb vertical trunks and balance on thin branches, avoiding thorns. Supplementary foods are flowers and seeds when available, and grass in the rainy season. The leaves are bitten off with the molars and chewed. Twigs are reached for and held with mouth and forelegs.
