The Ents are alive and well just living in Mauritius

Tolkein gave us the ancient tree men called Ents.

These sculptures from Mauritius make pretty good tree men of all different shapes and sizes.

Instead of hoping for a branch to use as an arm it seems easiest to simply put the hand to the mouth.

A multitude of expressions are employed and its amazing that such simply carved would can be made to be so expressionate.
