About this listen

Beneath every forest lies a hidden network where trees share nutrients, send warnings, and sometimes steal from one another. This episode explores the “Wood Wide Web,” the role of powerful “mother trees,” and the darker side of cleptoparasitism. It’s a story of cooperation, competition, and the fragile balance that keeps entire ecosystems alive.
