During the past Spring Break, I was walking along a path in the mountains of the Aran Valley in the Pyrenees, when I came across this educational sign. There's a typographical error in the English translation. Can you figure out what's wrong with it?

| "Dead trees area a very important nutritional source of food for many insects and birds." |
The answer's in the comments below.

The typo is the noun AREA, which should read ARE, a verb:
"Dead trees ARE a very important nutritional source..."
A complete sentence needs a verb. Probably, the article A before the following object was unintentionally attached to the end of the verb.
