Beechbone was one of the younger ents who lived in the Fangorn Forest in Middle-earth.
Biography
Not much is known about the life of Beechbone, apart from that he took part in Battle of Isengard with the other Ents on March 3, 3019. In the book The Two Towers, he was caught on Fire of Orthanc by the gas let out by the Uruk-hai and apparently burned to death. However, this only encouraged the other Ents to double their efforts in destroying Isengard.
Portrayal in adaptions
The Lord of the Rings film trilogy
In Peter Jackson's film adaptation, an Ent presumed to be Beechbone is briefly seen being set on fire by Orcs using flaming arrows. He survives, however, and later extinguishes himself in the flood (caused by the breaking of the dam) that engulfs Isengard.
