Strange 'superorganism' is keeping this 'vampire' tree alive
https://www.foxnews.com/science/strange ... tree-alive

It sounds like something straight out of "Stranger Things," but a forest "superorganism" is keeping a nearly-dead tree stump alive.

The stump of a kauri tree in New Zealand is still alive thanks to a network of intertwined roots that share resources, researchers have found, a network described as a forest "superorganism."

Reminds me of a slogan I just made-up today:
Life has life because of the others sharing it with us. Without them, it's just scenery.

Sometimes it's in spite of them.....and the scenery just makes up for the deficit.

I honestly do not know about that "makes up for" part, but it sure is nice to look around, at times. Refreshing. And rejuvenating.

Reminds me of a politician (parasite). It should be dead but it is still around sucking the blood out of others. :mrgreen:

an organism that lives in or on an organism of another species (its host) and benefits by deriving nutrients at the other's expense.

I didn't know if it was BS or not, but it was interesting. Watch out, you're inner child of the 60's is sneaking out. :D

I thought the colors were the result of some adolescent miscreant shenanigans.

Somebody's been having fun. And maybe being naughty, too.

I don't see the naughtiness but I can see this in the deep forest in use by a Wiccan type group.
Oh, I do think it is a beautiful piece of art.
