Here is a link to an article that does not use English as a Second language, yet. It actually says the stumps are about 2 meters in diameter and cover an area about 1/2 mile wide.
I don’t know why we need to go to hispanically speaking since this is U.S. forum.
Thanks Sequoyah101 and Wuli for these other links, very helpful.
