ended

Too many saguaros look like this these days. The extreme heat has killed a lot of these giants.

[Corinne C]

It’s beautiful and sad too.

[Diana]

Hard to believe these beauties end this way, lovely albeit very sad.

[Milanie]

What a sad way to end - the climate has reallybeen cruel in ways I don't even think of

[LManning (Laura)]

Oh wow. So different from the three beautiful ones you posted.

[Mags]

Very sad. Can anything be done with their remains? Lovely textures.

@marlboromaam All saguaros are legally protected. When they die, they just go back to nature. Lots of animals use them for a variety of reasons.

[Mags]

@blueberry1222 Well, that's a worthy purpose.

[Korcsog Károly]

Sad sight!

[KoalaGardens🐨]

so frightening that we know what we are doing yet keep on doing it

[Walks @ 7]

It is a most disconcerting thing to see but they still have such grace in their skeletal state.

[Babs]

Still looks beautiful even at the end of its days.

[haskar]

Sad view. It is such a metaphor for the state of our mother earth.

[Bep]

Sad sight...

[George]

A great shame but also a great photo.

[Chris Cook]

That’s tragic. They take so long to grow.

[KWind]

How sad that it's dead.
