The Life and Death of A Joshua Tree

It’s so sad to see this mangled Joshua Tree. I have to wonder if someone did this on purpose since it is located next to a dirt two-track.

    • It’s very sad if it was destroyed by a stupid human, Derrick. These trees can live 1000 years but live 500 years on average according to my research. Some people have zero respect for anything…

  1. I hope people didn’t do that ! I hope it was a natural demise of the tree. I think those trees are so unique, we don’t have any up here.

    • I too hope that it died naturally. They can live 1000 years but live 500 years on average. Impressive! They grow only here in the Mojave Desert, nowhere else on earth.
