Are there any animals that can consume psychoactive or entheogenic substances?

Are humans the only capable living thing on earth, able to use entheogens?

I've seen some burnout cats recovering from catnip addiction :d
Apparently, reindeers loves amanita muscaria.
I've read that guerrillas and boars both eat iboga roots. Plenty of animals get drunk on overripe fruit too. There is a video of a jaguar eating a caapi vine as well. Come to think of it, dog probably eat dmt grass all the time... and grazing animals will accidentally eat lsa/dmt containing plants from time to time, even though the plants are often poisonous to them. Since it's difficult to understand how another animal experiences the world in the first place, its really difficult to say how these plants effect them... I mean saying that a cat has a spiritual journey is projecting quite a few human qualities onto the cat.

Absolutely my friend, all animals love DRUGS :lol:
Koalas sleep in acacia trees and eat the leaves... (they also have two thumbs!)

I seen a program about monkeys who would steal tourists alcohol, some would drink loads some a little and some not at all, same as humans. My friends cat loves catnip
animals may consume entheogens on accident, or instinctually; and mammals have similar

but humans are the only eukaryotes with a PFC

SHEEP EAT LSD AND GO BONKERS!
Sheep are tripping like Woodstock hippies thanks to a crop of hallucinogenic mushrooms that sprouted on islands off the coast of Scotland.
Authorities say the animals can't resist the mushrooms, which contain a natural type of LSD and cause them to hallucinate for hours.
According to reports, the sheep:
*Stumble and fall like drunks.
*Run in terror from imaginary predators.
*Wander into roads and refuse to move, even for speeding traffic.
*Have lost all interest in sex.
Walk sideways and backwards, bleating crazily.
*Won't eat anything but mushrooms even though they have no nutritional value and taste like old leather.
The sheep even let other barnyard animals like chickens, roost on their backs without flinching.
"They're wrecked," Dr. Phillip Johnston of the North of Scotland Agriculture College, told reporters.
I have never seen sheep behave like this/ They're litterally out of their minds.
"But as long as the mushrooms are growing, the sheep are going to eat them. They must like the way they feel when they're tripping.
"They act crazy -- but they look like they're having a good time."
Shepherds alerted authorities after their herds began to behave strangely in August.
Animal experts traced the problems to the mushrooms, which grow wild and in great numbers in the Shetland Islands when weather conditions are right.
"In a few more weeks the mushrooms will be gone and the sheep will return to normal," said Dr. Johnston. "In the meantime, the shephers are going to have to keep a close eye on their flocks.
"As long as they're under the influence of drugs, they're in danger of hurting themselves."

I remember reading something about elephants eating mushrooms to help them work more efficiently. I am sure there is a book on this subject... found it:
