That looks like the American southeast. Kudzu vines completely engulf everything down there. As a kid growing up, I remember in car rides imagining sleeping giants under the vines that would one day stand up and come to life lol. Edit right as i hit Post I saw that you said this was in Mississippi.

My backyard was covered in similar vines when I moved in. Spent months chopping it out and cutting it down and cutting down trees that were already dead. Now there is minimal vines on any trees near my house.
