The Queen of Trees altyazı (767360)

1
00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:22,890
In Africa there lives
an extraordinary tree.

2
00:00:22,900 --> 00:00:25,759
She is the queen of the riverbank.

3
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:30,460
A monarch whose story
stretches back millions of years.

4
00:00:33,632 --> 00:00:38,712
In tribal cultures, her curious ways
have fueled myth and legend.

5
00:00:39,354 --> 00:00:42,554
They set her apart from other trees.

6
00:00:45,528 --> 00:00:48,548
She is a sycomore fig.

7
00:00:49,068 --> 00:00:51,501
Queen of Africa's trees.

8
00:00:52,604 --> 00:00:56,464
THE QUEEN OF TREES

9
00:01:00,130 --> 00:01:02,469
She appears never to flower

10
00:01:02,530 --> 00:01:06,518
yet mysteriously she fruits
several times a year.

11
00:01:07,924 --> 00:01:10,393
She seems to have
no regard for season

12
00:01:10,426 --> 00:01:13,063
and drops her leaves
when she pleases.

13
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:20,235
Strangest of all is the relationship
upon which she completely depends.

14
00:01:23,794 --> 00:01:26,516
The two partners
couldn't be more different.

15
00:01:27,172 --> 00:01:29,579
One can withstand a river in flood.

16
00:01:30,973 --> 00:01:34,331
The other can drown in a dew drop.

17
00:01:36,798 --> 00:01:41,467
One lives for centuries,
the other only hours.

18
00:01:42,389 --> 00:01:45,692
They differ in size
a billion times over.

19
00:01:46,566 --> 00:01:50,203
At about 1mm long
the fig wasp is so small

20
00:01:50,669 --> 00:01:53,007
that it could fly through
the eye of a needle.

21
00:01:54,449 --> 00:01:57,777
But no fig tree
could exist without it.

22
00:02:02,475 --> 00:02:05,664
Sycomore figs are found
