Saturday

Blog will cover my next book topic: Fauna and Fungi Relationships : When animals hunt and cultivate mushrooms.


A photo I took of a snail munching on a mushroom.

I'm currently in the research stage of my new non-fiction Faunal and Fungal Relationships. Please note, book title is still open for suggestions. 

The book will cover mycophagy (consumption of mushrooms), fungi-cultivation (animals that farm mushrooms) and of course, zoochory (the action of animals spreading fungal spores). My focus will be  on mutualistic relationships between animals and fungi. Parasitic and pathogenic relationships will not be covered, but I could get inspired to write another book about this topic. 




 

Happy Halloween!
