Biologist here,
that pinecone pop is always fun, cus it’s like unintentional biology lesson time when people do it.
It’s by “design” (evolution) that they do that. So that the specific species can spread.
It’s why fires are important for forests. Just you know not like 90 trillion fires in 1 summer…
