Pando Tree

While the Pando tree may mistakenly be taken for a massive forest, it is actually a colony of one single quanking aspen! It is the largest single organism and has only one underground root system. It´s estimated to weigh 6,000,000 kilograms and is nearly 80,000 years old – making it also one of the oldest known organisms. It is located in Fishlake National Forest in Utah.
