The oldest giant sequoia in Yosemite National Park will soon collapse

The Grizzly Giant is a 2,700-year-old venerable tree located in the Mariposa Grove, south of Yosemite National Park. Its trunk leans dangerously at 17° under the weight of the centuries, which makes authorities fear its imminent fall. This specimen is part of the 200 giant sequoias that this protected area of the nature reserve contains.
