Stressed plants ‘cry’ — and some animals can probably hear them

Bats, mice and moths could potentially live in a world filled with the sounds of plants, and previous work by the same team has found that plants respond to sounds made by animals, too.

Trees are also feeling sort of pain. They are able to communicate and cooperate to transfer resources to the tree which planting site is not so fertile.

They even are able to localize and suport they offspring this way.

What was mind blowing for me was that the older and bigger ones act as hubs holding besides nutrients also information for the ones around them to use 🤯. And share all this by the root system+ mycelium.

You cut a big one, you destroy more than one tree.

I like touching trees. I feel a connection to something bigger than myself.
