GIANT SEQUOIA TREE IS THE LARGEST LIVING TREE ON EARTH
The General Sherman Tree in California's Sequoia National Park is thought to be the world’s largest by volume, an estimated 52,508 cubic feet. Its weight is about equal to that of 10 blue whales, and it has one branch nearly 7 feet in diameter.
