30 years ago this month , botanists in Australia discovered a stand of pine trees in the mountains near Sydney that have survived from the time of the dinosaurs.
The Wollemi pine survived the comet impact and global firestorms that killed the dinosaurs but all the turmoil of the ending of the last ice age as well.
