In the African savannah, herbivores such as elephants, wildebeests, and various species of antelope may eat lemongrass when it's available. These animals are known to graze on a variety of grasses and vegetation, including lemongrass, especially during dry seasons when other food sources are scarce. The high fiber content and nutrients in lemongrass can make it a suitable option for these herbivores.
Lemon grass has adapted to the savanna by developing long, narrow leaves that help to minimize water loss through transpiration. Its deep root system allows it to access water stored in the ground during the dry season. Additionally, the strong aroma of lemon grass can act as a natural repellent against herbivores in the savanna ecosystem.

The only way to get decent results is to make an extract (a very strong tea) with the dried lemon grass and use as seasoning just before serving.
