This is an oak tree from the front yard of a house in my neighborhood. A k-strategist is an animal that produces few offspring that require a large amount of energy to produce and raise. They have longer life expectancies ( compared to r-strategists) and can reproduce more than once. An oak tree takes multiple years before it is mature enough to reproduce. Oak trees reproduce for many years and have a life expectancy of hundreds of years.
