NATURAL RESOURCES

With over half the state covered in pine trees and more commercial forestland than any other state, it’s no wonder Georgia is known for its lumber, resins, and turpentine, which all come from trees.

Georgia grows the most peanuts in the United States, and it’s also the country’s largest producer of kaolin clay, which is often used in paper-making and beauty products.

WILDLIFE

Black bears, bobcats, deer, and gophers are common in Georgia, and off the coast you can spot manatees right whales, and humpback whales. Georgia is also home to bald eagles peregrine falcons and woodpeckers.

Some trees you’re likely to see include live oak trees, magnolias, cottonwoods, sugar maples, and gum trees. But what’s that spooky-looking vine all over them? It’s Spanish moss, and it depends on trees for its water and nutrients. It doesn’t kill the tree, but the moss can shade the tree’s leaves and can sometimes cause branches to break off. Kudzu is another common vine, and this one is a really bad neighbor. This invasive species is sometimes called “the plant that ate the South” because of the way it grows up and over anything in its path, blocking sunlight and eventually smothering it.
