Just be glad you aren’t an elephant. Their first solid food is mamma crap.
They don’t have the necessary bacteria in their gut to digest the grasses and leaves they eat as adults so they get it from poop.
An elephant does what nature intended it to do from the beginning of time. Adult humans have no natural need to eat baby poop or any poop or they'd be doing it since the world began.
Next thing we'll hear, the "experts" will want the contents of people's septic tanks.
Just be glad you aren’t an elephant. ...etc.

Thanks for an interesting factoid, cc. I think I learn something new everyday here on FR.
