How do you tell a trees age?
To tell a tree's age, you must first cut it open, by usually cutting off the trunk of the tree or a big branch. Then, if you look at the top of the trunk or branch, you will see numerous (or very little) wobbly rings. Count the number of rings, and that is the age. One ring equals one year of age.
