Tanks Swallowed By Nature Look So Peaceful As If The War Never Happened (45 Pics)
Tanks rolled out onto the battlefields of World War I nearly a hundred years ago. Not all of them survived the war to to become museum pieces; many of these lumbering steel behemoths remain stuck where they were rendered immobile. Each was home to three or more fighting men, and not all of them survived the demise of their armored fighting vehicle.
This collection of tanks reclaimed by nature comes from all over the world. From World War II Japanese tanks that found their resting place in the jungles where they struggled against their American counterparts, to the rare German machines now stuck in some forgotten part of Eastern Europe, they're all finally at peace.

I wonder how many other guys are looking at these and thinking, "I could fix that..."
Part of me enjoys the way nature is taking these things back, but another part says "Isn't this littering? Why do they think they can leave all this all over the place?"
So sad to see an element of war in such beautiful peaceful places! If only all the ammunition, guns, bombs could be destroyed and this planet was returned to a life of harmony! But alas! It is infested with humans, who can never live in peace!
Do you live with your head up your a*s? Killing and murder is not just a human thing.
Load More Replies...My head is on my neck. Yours seems to be missing completely!! Probably some red-neck gun-lover! Killing and murder is an animal thing too, only they do it to EAT! Not for monetary and political gains. D******d!
Most of these are tanks that fought against terrible evil. Taking a life is not in and of its self a bad thing, it is in the nature it is done.
Though he did not know where the journey would take him, he went on. "I think i can!" thought the little tank as he rolled along... :)
I would love to know; who the last person in it was, when they left it there and why.
Mother Nature is too forgiving and loving, to still accept and invite something that once harmed life.
Oh my lord, you are one of the dumbest sacks of c**p I've heard such a comment for, yes War is horrible, No, Murder is not just a human thing, Lions will kill rivals young, Chimps will murder other chimps, Orca hunt for sport and Honey Badger hunt by RIPPING THE NUT SACKS OFF OF STAGS and letting them pass out from pain and blood loss. Stouts will hunt Rabbits and slowly slash away at its flesh of its neck till it finally hits a nerve and immobilizes it. Wolfs will eat the living hind quarters of a downed pray. Mother Nature, would have none of your flower power, do no harm, no aggression b******t as a wolf would feed on you because clearly You are in the bottom of the food chain.
