California drier than the rainforest they are present in here? Allows greater movement?

It's so early, not enough research done. If it starts affecting Hoop badly, which is a forestry timber, then more money will be thrown at it maybe.

Always a nice factoid, the tallest Bunya in the world is in Portugal. Hopefully it will stay safe there!

Definitely drier here, we get less than half the rainfall of those forests. But people also irrigate a lot and the clay soil means it can be pretty soggy at times.

If it still exists this says there is a taller one in Australia: https://www.conifers.org/ar/Araucaria_bidwillii.php
