Wildlife can't resist the fruit of the rubber tree. At night, raccoons, rats & opossums are up in the trees, while the skunks forage on the ground below. By day, all manner of birds, including parrots, make a stop for the tasty & abundant fruit they can't seem to get enough of (but there is still plenty of fruit on the ground that has to be swept up daily).
