We need to genetically engineer this & sell as garden ornament, have it trigger to electrical stimulus and your problem gets natural causes

Saw these when I lived in the Amazon. The thorns also have an oil on them that make the pricks feel like they're burning. Avoid at all costs

stupid things, so they cut the trees down. The individual shell of the fruit looks like an ear, with a little effort, it looks like dolphin

Prickly. Full of poison. Offspring are loud and make huge messes. Pretty solid description of my baby mama.

A term meaning "my kid's mom" used by men emotionally detached from the full responsibility of parenthood

I don’t know about you, but that seemed a lot slower than 160 mph to me.

"can be launched up to" meaning been recorded upto that speed doesnt always mean it will be that speed, still has impressive force

Nice. I guess they're meant to explode when they hit the ground.

It's a pretty amazing evolutionary method of trying to keep offspring from competing with the parent plant. Neat.

Not sure about these, but with other exploding pods, the covering slowly contracts (with age) until it the seams finally bust.

I’ve seen some trees like that near where I live, and the broken pods look kinda like that too. So it might be Australia, or somin similar.
