Yellow sap running down ponderosa pine trees is often a response to stress or injury, such as insect infestation, disease, or physical damage. This sap, known as resin, serves as a protective mechanism, helping to seal wounds and deter pests. Additionally, environmental factors like drought or extreme temperatures can trigger increased resin production as the tree attempts to defend itself.
