look! look!
humungous fungus
it’s alive!
This mushroom popped up recently on a front lawn in my village. My foot wears a size 9 1/2 shoe and this mushroom is big enough to eat it, but this is nothing. Bigger yet is the world’s largest known fungus. It spans 3-1/2 square miles, about the size of 1600 football fields! It grows mostly underground and is alive and well in Oregon.
