Did you know that some trees talk to each other?
It’s true! Through an underground network of fungi (think of it as the internet of the forest), trees can share nutrients and even warn each other about pests. The biggest, oldest trees, often called “mother trees,” support the younger ones, passing along wisdom in the form of food and chemical signals. So next time you’re walking through a forest, remember: there’s a whole secret world of tree gossip happening right beneath your feet.
Nature is basically running its own social network—and it’s way cooler than ours!
