10.1371/journal.pbio.0030380&id=37960 The top photo shows the
intact trunk shortly before Efi manipulated it
(visible to the left of female Fulani). The trunk was
then detached by female Efi with both hands (middle),
pushed into the ground, and used as a stabilizing
stick while dredging aquatic herbs towards her with
her other hand (bottom). This IMO might resemble the
environment & lifestyle of A.aethiopicus.
A.boisei lived in more open wetlands.
