Phaeolus schweinitzii takes down 3 larch

[Fungus]

why does it panic fruit from cut logs then? ive never seen living fruits on dead trees either?

 

Because cutting the tree temporarely triggers speeding up the decay and reproductive process. And I've seen it fruiting from still standing dead coniferous trees at 2 to 3 meters height that died 5 to 10 years ago.
