Steve Moore :toad: on Nostr: The Whitebark Pine lives in the Northern Rockies & Cascades at fairly high ...
The Whitebark Pine lives in the Northern Rockies & Cascades at fairly high elevations. Its seeds are crucial to the diet of Grizzly bears & other forest critters. The bears raid the middens of squirrels at a time when other food sources are scarce. The Whitebark is endangered due to pine blister rust & pine beetles, which are on the rise in part due to #ClimateChange. #ThickTrunkTuesday #Trees #Environment #WY #Mountains
