Please watch this amazing story from PBS Weekend NewsHour: There are more than 47,000 trees in the Pando forest, whichВ weigh over 6,000,000 kilograms. The new tree grows with the old one asВ they establish a root network that expands on and on.

For all intents and purposes it is the first tree, but in a seperate place. This new tree has all the same genetic makeup, and even has genetic markers to say that it belongs to the first tree. ThisВ means extending its network of roots and forcing them up through the ground, thus starting a new tree. So how does it work? When a Quaking Aspen wants to reproduce, it flowers and produces a clone of itself. Pando, also called the 'Trembling Giant,'В is a clonal colony of a single Quaking Aspen located within Richfield, Utah. The largest of these is a forest made up of a singleВ tree. For the largestВ creatures, we must delve into the world of super-organisms:В many individuals connected to form oneВ whole. WeighingВ in at 180,000kg, it is certainly a sizable beast, butВ far from the largest. There is a misconception that the largest creature on earth is the Blue Whale.
