Interesting fact: Tree weights vary widely by species, age, and size, with some giant redwoods weighing hundreds of tons.
The answer: An average mature tree weighs between 1 to 5 tons (900 to 4,500 kilograms), depending on species and size. For example, a typical oak tree weighs around 2 tons.
The weight of a tree depends on its species, height, trunk diameter, and wood density. Trees store carbon in their biomass, making their weight an important factor in ecological studies. Giant trees like coast redwoods can weigh over 100 tons, while smaller trees weigh much less.
