[10:46.63]One of the most famous tourist attractions

[10:53.60]This redwood might be described
[10:55.54]as "the tree with the moving foot"
[10:58.07]because it is not even a native California, believe it or not!
[11:02.54]These trees,
[11:03.51]which are among the largest and oldest of all living things,
[11:07.24]moved to California from the Arctic 11.
[11:09.82]Long, long ago they grew in the Arctic,
[11:13.00]just as enormous 12 and tall as they are today.
[11:16.01]But the warmer climate drew them southward

[11:22.93]Carried by birds, winds, and some strong-teethed animals,
[11:27.12]the seeds of the redwood traveled thousands of miles
[11:30.10]from what is now the northern-most tip of Alaska to California,
[11:34.28]their last stand.
[11:36.05]Only the hardest seeds survived
[11:38.22]—a few that visited Europe soon died out.
[11:40.96]But those that made it to California put down roots,
[11:44.08]grew into luxuriant forests,
[11:46.22]and became camera subjects
[11:48.07]for the hundreds of thousands of tourists
[11:50.61]who visit California's giant redwood each year.
