Slime moulds are the coolest. 

Fuligo septica, the "dog vomit" slime mold. Don’t you just love these names? Lol Slime mold or slime mould is an informal name given to several kinds of unrelated eukaryotic organisms that can live freely as single cells, but can aggregate together to form multicellular reproductive structures. Slime molds were formerly classified as fungi but are no longer considered part of that kingdom. They feed on microorganisms that live in any type of dead plant material. They contribute to the decomposition of dead vegetation, and feed on bacteria, yeasts, and fungi. ・・・ #growninhaiti #slimemold #slimemould #fuligoseptica #dogvomit #decomposition #foodforest #agroforestry #microorganism #organic #natural #naturescycle #nogmos #nopesticides #noherbicides #nofungicides #texture #slippery https://www.instagram.com/p/BypnONAFLZA/?igshid=xic7gq8px5q1
