おもしろい事実

Clark's Nutcrackers can remember thousands of secret seed stashes they buried in the mountains!

Its seeds, called pine nuts, are a yummy, energy-rich snack for bears, squirrels, and birds!

Some Whitebark Pines can survive freezing temperatures as low as -50 degrees Celsius!

These super tough trees help save snowpack longer, giving animals water later in summer!

特殊能力

能力

Mountain Survivor

Whitebark Pine can grow in harsh, rocky, high-altitude environments where few other trees can survive, clinging to life near the timberline.

能力

Nutcracker's Friend

Whitebark Pine has large, wingless seeds that are expertly harvested and buried by Clark's Nutcrackers, helping the tree spread its seeds far and wide.

能力

Cold Resister

Whitebark Pine can withstand extreme cold and heavy snow because its flexible branches bend instead of breaking, and its needles are adapted for icy winds.
