First post I saw out of bed. I thought it said 'grow stronger with twine'. Thought that seemed a bit unnecessary haha.

North East. There's literally just the two, pictured in your post, we don't have tons and tons

Studying the photo carefully (plant species and rock forms) I’d say this is in the southern part of the Northeast Indian state of Meghalaya.

Actually, India is over 1.2 billion square miles, whereas your average Costco is only about 150,000 square feet.

It might be possible to build bridges with the roots but they will not last 500 years.

7 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I'd assume it is similar to human dreads? The hair tangles, and is replaced with new hair.

Also there is clearly a giant sloth under the bridge. So I'm calling the photoshops here.

7 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I don't mind to be wrong though, because it would be cool.

Looks like a capybara to me? But yeah, that is a fair point.
