That too is interesting, wonder what pathway it slots into for that

to happen. Is it excreted by the kidneys or into bile?

The book doesn't say, just says 'glyphosate is rapidly excreted by
mammals'.


NB
It's (very) water soluble so I would expect kidneys being the preferred
route.

I thought it wasn't absorbed across the gut wall in the first place and is
excreted unchanged.
