This picture is all about our welfare system. We learned about it on our hike last weekend.
As one tree starts to fall, it leans on another. For the rest of the standing tree's life it will support the leaner. Until at some point the standing tree won't be able to support the both of them anymore and they will both land on the forest floor. Dead.
And then snakes will make homes in the rotting corpses of both trees.
The snake part isn't really about welfare. It's more about hiking and watching your step around rotting trees.
