Ironically, dead trees are essential for the health and variety of the forest. I read that trees even pass on nutrients to younger trees just before they die. Nature is mysterious.

There is a documentary about the secret life of trees ... it is mind-blowing stuff, and then when you consider the relationships betwen them and the local fungi ... there's a lot more going on out there than we will ever know!

They even eat fish, believe it or not. :D

Tree-eating fish? Wonders truly never cease!

Can you imagine that? Nature is not selfish at all.
