"The Lion King" is one of the many tree sculptures carved after Hurricane Ike destroyed thousands of trees on the island.

Although the bulk of the tree sculptures are located within the East End Historic District, if you are an avid sightseer you can find a couple that are elsewhere on the island. This Earl Jones sculpture is an example of one that is located off the beaten path of the traditional tour.
