Kudzu has not eaten the south. “The U.S. Forest Service reports that kudzu occupies… about 227,000 acres of forestland, an area about the size of a small county and about one-sixth the size of Atlanta. [That’s 0.1%] of the South’s 200 million acres of forest.” https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/true-story-kudzu-vine-ate-south-180956325/
