Loggers make a strange discovery In The Middle Of A Hollow Tree

Not Your Average Wood

The mountains near Jasper are covered with American chestnut trees, that are of great profit when it comes to commercial value. The reason behind it is chestnut trees’ growth speed, they grow faster than oak trees. This tree species is one of their kinds. At the beginning of the 20th century, American chestnut trees were at the stage of extinction due to a spread of the fungal infection but the species managed to survive. These are now found throughout the eastern North American regions like Nova Scotia, New Hampshire, Alabama, Georgia, and Tennessee. They have very unique characteristics which resulted in what came in front of this group of loggers that day.
