Based on a recent discussion, I think it was decided that Paul Bunyan (and, one would infer, Babe) should be classified as kaiju. It feels a bit racist (or at least specie-ist) to single him out compared to the damage done by all the others.
I have a bunch of little Arbor Vitae trees which deer do not eat. They do however like to trample the shit out of them. So I imagine likewise, somewhere in a quiet pine forest, there are a bunch of Douglas Firs with all the branches snapped off on one side thanks to the careless meandering of a blue ox the size of a house.

I would really like to read that discussion (and see that community), please
I cannot find the lemmy thread, but here’s an older reddit thread which itself contains a link to this video.
