Cactus Hug

You know what the saddest part of this is?

The kind of cacti you see on television are actually extremely rare. Saguaro cacti only grow in the Sonoran Desert which is mostly located in Arizona. Most of the time the arms develop at somewhat random angles, but for about half of the life of the cactus, it has no arms at all. It takes up to 75 years before a Saguaro even starts to grow an arm.

This cactus has been waiting for a hug longer than you have been alive and probably longer than you will live. And that's terrible.

(Also sorry about the lack of bloggings. Many topics are just better/easier in video form.)
