So who wants to see some #zombie #fungi? I cleared some camphor saplings and lantana vine over weekend. The amount of #entomopathogenic fungi I found was getting really annoying. Ugh put down tools, get out camera, take photo for the wonderful bluesky people, pick back up tools. Repeat #fungifriends

I mean the list of animals that will attack you for a sandwich if you taunt them is very long. Almost lost my hand to a big lace monitor lizard the other day as I was enjoying eating a pie so much I didn't see it until last second.

tbh it's the little life forms that consistently rock me in jungle. But yes turning a corner and coming face to face with an elephant would put it in perspective

Even fish herbivores are like this. A tiny damsel will fight a scuba diver. An angry mono brow mbuna cichlid will terrorize an aquariums predators.

Until you look a horse in the eye, and beg it to lift its hoof off your toes, you don't know what a horse is capable of.

The purpose of a system, is what it produces. And this system turns kids into prisoners. We don't fix it, because it's working as intended.
