Episode

Pine trees (Pinus xmas) became extinct during the Fifty-Year Squirts, when they were all chopped down to make toilet paper, [6ACV13] over eight hundred years ago, gone the way of the poodle and the primitive notions of modesty of 20th-century people. [2ACV04] However, their seeds have been kept preserved in the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, and they were even seen in forests in 3004. [4ACV17]

In a non-canon segment regarding Xmas 3010, pine trees were brought back from extinction by the Planet Express crew. However, they had been mutated by a virus from the Germ Warfare Repository and eventually covered Earth in forests. Due to all the oxygen they created, the atmosphere burned up when Bender lit a cigar. [6ACV13]
