Physics has found lots of naturally occurring fractals.

  According to the article It is one of the rare fractal structures discovered in physics, along with KAM tori. What are some other examples?

      I think it's somewhat clear that "physics" and "nature" refer to two fairly different concepts in this context.

        This is now entirely a semantic argument. I would argue "physics" and "nature" are almost interchangeable here. KAM tori naturally occur in ocean currents.
