The Grandidier’s baobab (Adansonia grandidieri), also known as the renala, may live to be 300 years old or older! Scientists are unable to confirm these trees’ exact age because baobabs don’t produce annual growth rings. This species of baobab is found only in Madagascar’s dry deciduous forests. It can grow as much as 98 feet (30 meters) tall, and its trunk can have a diameter of up to 9.8 feet (3 meters). Unfortunately, Grandidier’s baobabs are endangered due in part to habitat degradation, agricultural expansion, and exploitation for its fruit and bark.
