It is illegal to remove, disturb or kill Joshua trees, a threatened species found in the Mojave Desert.
In February, a pair of California developers allegedly used a backhoe to uproot and bury over 30 of the iconic trees to make way for homes.
This week, the two appeared in court on 36 misdemeanor charges, one for each uprooted tree, and agreed to pay $18,000 in fines.
