Why Do Forests Whisper?

Imagine you're in a big forest, and it feels like the trees are talking to each other. That's what happens when trees whisper, they send out tiny vibrations through their leaves, trunks, and roots. It’s like how people can talk to each other using sound waves, but trees use vibrations instead. Sometimes you can hear these whispers if the wind or a small animal moves them just right.
