Scientists Baffled by Mushroom Growing on Live Frog
Original article on OddityCentral.com – a blog on oddities and wacky news http://www.odditycentral.com/
In what is believed to be the first ever such documented case, researchers in India came across a live frog with a small mushroom growing on the side of its body.
The Last of Us, the hit HBO series based on the namesake video game series, has popularized the fictional idea of mushrooms and fungi infecting humans and turning them into mindless zombies. In reality, fungi from the cordyceps family only infect insects, but a team of Indian researchers recently made a discovery which speaks to the adaptability of these microorganisms and their ability to survive and thrive in the most unusual conditions. While observing the fauna around a small pond in the foothills of the Kudremukha Ranges of India, hobbyist naturalist Chinmay Maliye and wetland specialist Lohit Y.T. came across a frog with a mushroom sprouting from its flank.
