About MAMMEE APPLE

Mammee apple (Mammea americana) is a tropical fruit tree native to the Caribbean, Central America, and northern South America. It produces large, round fruits with a thick rind and orange flesh. While the fruit is enjoyed by humans, it is potentially toxic to pets, including cats and dogs. The seeds and possibly other parts of the plant contain toxic substances that can cause gastrointestinal distress or more severe health issues if ingested by pets. It's advisable to keep pets away from mammee apple to prevent accidental poisoning.
