Jerome thanks for posting those pictures. They are amazing trees. I wonder if there are any in the Kruger park area?

Thanks Bob. My taxidermist is near where that tree with the bar in it is to be found. Maybe I can get by there

Its a shame the elephants have killed so many of them. Beautiful trees.

I just googled "biggest baobab tree" and OMG there are some massive ones. The largest one in the world has a circumference of over 108 feet!!

Beautiful trees, the only reason they have survived......can't be used for fire wood....

As a forester These trees fascinate me. Its like looking at a living dinosaur.

@ TMS the other reason they survived it that the wood fiber is not of a quality that can make paper or boards. Because of this these magnificent trees will continue to survive for those who see them to enjoy!

I just love the "upside down" look of the tree. This one has been used by elephants to rub on.. look at the debris on the ground. Tracker said it sleeps 10 people, and it obviously has at least once.
