i think i know where you're going with this;)
do they grow freely now - yes, and not only in Africa
does anything eat them now - don't know, some bacteria and worms probably, don't know about mammals
why only us? this can only be speculated - circumstantial evens/chemistry/brain development - right place at the right time perhaps? with so many stars and planets, life is a very rare thing in universe - what were odds for life flourish here on earth? it seems almost like it happened incidentally, although if life on earth was brought here with water - that's completely different subject altogether.
same happened with intelligent conscience - at some point there we none and then only one species got serious advantage over other species, would be ironic if push to that gave change in diet which opened developing mind/conscience/self awareness to new levels throu hallucinogenic effects )
