An instance of SCP-XXXX

Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: Undercover Foundation personnel are to be stationed around ██████ Park every night from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 a.m. If any civilian witnesses an instance of SCP-XXXX walking, they are to be kept away from the entity and administered Class C Amnestics.

██████ Park's gates are to be closed from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 a.m. Any civilian trying to trespass into the park during this time is to be questioned and administered Class C Amnestics.

In the event that camera surveillance or the assigned on-site personnel detect any activity from an instance of SCP-XXXX outside of the aforementioned timeframe, MTF Theta-4 ("Gardeners") is to be dispatched to the site to attempt to pacify and/or neutralize it.

Description: SCP-XXXX is a group of 81 7 Oak trees2 located in ██████ Park in the small town of ███████, PA. During the night (approximately 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m., though it does vary), instances of SCP-XXXX start exhibiting sentience and the ability to walk around █████ Park. While this is happening, instances of SCP-XXXX become incredibly territorial and aggressive to any person in the vicinity, attacking them with their branches.

SCP-XXXX was discovered in ██/Oct/2018 after a police officer in the town of ███████, PA arrived at the local clinic with several deep cuts and broken bones, claiming that a walking oak tree had attacked him. Foundation personnel at the clinic went to investigate the claim, seeing the first known manifestation of SCP-XXXX's anomalous behavior. The exact reason why SCP-XXXX first manifested that day, without any prior signs of anomalous behavior is, as of yet, unknown.

Any attempts to remove an instance of SCP-XXXX from █████ Park are futile, since, when feeling threatened, instances of SCP-XXX will root deep into the ground, making it impossible to move.

Instances of SCP-XXXX have, in multiple occasions, been observed to "clean" the park, throwing out things like litter and animal feces over the park fence. The reason for this behavior is unknown.

Addendum XXXX-A: Incident report 15/Dec/2018
As an attempt to research and find a way to properly contain SCP-XXXX, SCP-XXXX-8 was dug up to be transported to Site-██. However, SCP-XXXX-8 appears to have lost all anomalous properties, even when planted back in its place in ██████ Park. After that, SCP-XXXX-1 through 7 have been observed to walk around the place where SCP-XXXX-8 was planted.
Attempting to remove instances of SCP-XXXX from the park is now forbidden.
