yes
You burn it
the strangler fig climbs onto another tree and strangles it until it dies and then the fig is attached to the dead tree
No, the strangler fig tree cannot physically strangle a person. The name "strangler fig" refers to its growth habit, where the tree starts as an epiphyte, wrapping around a host tree and eventually outcompeting it for resources. While it can overwhelm and kill the host tree, its growth mechanism poses no threat to humans.
It climbs up it using its roots to get to sunlight in the canopy. Eventually the strangler fig tree will strangle the host tree to death and only the hollow strangler fig will be left.
A strangler fig is a vine that raps itself around a tree, the host tree, and takes the resources the tree would normally take therefore killing the tree.

The strangler fig is called so because of its unique growth habit. It starts as a seed that germinates in the branches of a host tree, sending down roots that encircle and eventually envelop the host. As it grows, the strangler fig can outcompete and kill the host tree, effectively "strangling" it. This process can lead to the host tree's demise while allowing the fig to thrive, often resulting in a hollowed-out remnant of the original tree.
Strangler Fig- seed is planted in canopies. When strangler fig is growing it wraps it's around its host tree (the tree it was planted on) and deprives it from light, rain and nutrients.
beacause it raps around the tree or plant.So it looks like a strangler
The strangler fig tree have many adaptations one being that the strangler figs start their lives off as epiphytes, plants that do not root in the soil in their first stages of life, as at the ground level of the rainforest there is little light and a huge amount of competition for water and nutrients meaning that the majority of plants that start off on the ground have to adapt or die. The strangler fig has adapted by using other trees to get itself into the canopy where it is lighter. Once the strangler fig sprouts roots, it begins to use them to strangle the tree. as well as this it competes with the host tree for nuitrients and water, then the strangler fig has a large growth spurt, and once it begins to grow leaves they are very large and they tend to cover those of the host plant. The Strangler fig uses alot of these adaptations to become able to grow into a strong healthy plant.
Because it strangles a tree.
