Exploring the World of Plants and Fungi

[@pamelamays4186]

Bleeding Tooth Fungus sounds like a very serious and painful dental disease.

[@michaelscottland4239]

No wonder dentists have the highest suicide rate.

[@Debbie-henri]

The actual 'look' of the Bleeding Tooth Fungus doesn't distress me at all. The 'name' Bleeding Tooth Fungus triggers thoughts of dentists, toothache, drills, aghhhh!

[@kellydalstok8900]

Some people truly have a phobia for things with lots of holes. A panellist on BBC’s QI recoiled when they showed a picture of a honeycomb on screen, she just couldn’t bring herself to look at it. It wasn’t shown to trigger her, because no one on the show knew she had trypophobia.

[@animalogic]

You wouldn’t believe some of the pics we had to dig through when we were gathering visuals for this episode 🤢🤢🤢

[@planclops]

I’m both entranced and disturbed by this fungus 😅

[@animalogic]

I think that's definitely the general consensus!

[@KatzeRegi]

For the nerds out there: 1. It's not roots, it's hypha. 2. "other plants" suggests the bleeding tooth fungus is a plant. It is not, it's a fungus (as the name suggests)

[@eleonoradelpiano8635]

Thank you... i dont understand how people can truly think that fungi are plants lmao

[@MeAuntieNora]

In fact, fungi are more closely released to humans than they are to plants.

[@ZentaBon]

Probably miswrote, these people have been doing this sort of thing a while. It's a good criticism though as it shows you notice these things as an enthusiast

[@kyokoyumi]

@@eleonoradelpiano8635 Vegans, that's why. Vegans want them to be plants so they can keep eating them lol

[@eleonoradelpiano8635]

@@kyokoyumi i happen to be vegan. Most vegans pay a lot of attention to what they eat, i would argue that most of them know about this very basic distinction. Also, there's nothing wrong about eating mushrooms. They're not plants, but what they do share with plants is a lack of central nervous system; they dont have emotions, they dont feel pain, they dont have the capacity to have individual experiences. Could you enlighten me on the reason why vegans aren't supposed to eat mushrooms?

[@phenomenom9142]

It looks like its full of strawberry jam 🤤

[@lonewolffang]

I wouldn't recommend eating it.

[@ogcurly6256]

Forbidden dessert

[@RidinWithMyLocsOn]

let's get a spoon shall we 🤤

[@OctoPie-k7n]

The Forbidden Jam

[@MermaidMakes]

I wonder if the high amounts of tannins and astringency makes them useful for topical applications, other than as a dye? 🤔

[@natwixterthan18]

They kinda look like jelly filled muffins 😂

[@helldronez]

Nice idea for patisserie menu 😂

[@Timmycoo]

Animalogic and PBS have the best outtakes lol.

[@cyberwolf6667]

Great info, schools should teach more of this to the kids to get them involved in the planets health and how cool nature is. Cute cat!

[@丫o]

Bleeding Tooth Fungus will be the name of my next death metal band

[@tonydeluna8095]

I always appreciate your videos Animallogic! Nothing but a great channel to learn from every Friday

[@SorenAlba54]

Now this is a mushroom I never heard before. The fact that not only it’s recognized by its distinctive appearance in that particular stage in its life cycle, but it also decreases carbon dioxide like most plants and trees. Keep up the good work, Tasha.

[@animalogic]

Glad we could teach you something new!

[@CoralReaper707]

One of the classic fungi in my book

[@amicableenmity9820]

Idk how I'd feel seeing that in the wild without knowing what it is.

[@jaspyjiindust.9227]

I'll put seeing these fungi in europe on my "have to see this" list

[@stagnantfox3027]

I wonder if these fungi can be used to make- oh wow as soon as I was gonna suggest it to be used as a dye the video mentioned it being used as a dye LOL. Weird timing.

[@smokeymchaggis73]

IT'S NOT A PHASE TASHA! - That mushroom, probably 😆

[@Spawn256]

You guys need a shirt that says bloody mushy with a nice artwork on it. I pay for it.😂

[@jeffreyt02]

Scary bleeding fungus: exists My mind: strawberry bavarois 🤤

[@PerryTrails]

How about one on the hammer orchid? The flower that pollinates by fooling a wasp to mate with it?

[@KnightAster]

I'm normally more curious than scared but, this fungus is pretty interesting.

[@bijoychandraroy]

any Kaiju No. 8 watcher here?

[@Talushallux1]

Looks so beautiful! It looks like a jam tart with the jam not uniformly spread out!

[@Ghost-pr4fq]

Expert: They look horrific Literally me: ''mashroom cake''

[@lonewolffang]

It's going through It's puberty.

[@Tescoffee]

I must be weird, cause I think they are pretty 😅

[@Bildgesmythe]

Same

[@bobbiechinn9578]

You adopt the image you want. You want to be seen as "weird" which is in the eye of the beholder after all.

[@harsha1989able]

Same here...

[@footfault1941]

It looks like a thrown away mashmallow with strow berry jam oozing. You try it first!

[@kellydalstok8900]

Or a yoghurt gummy.

[@footfault1941]

@@kellydalstok8900 more likely!

[@jjhggdcqz]

Can you make a video about cacao?

[@zellevmusic232]

You need to talk about the boquila trifoliata, the plant that somehow able to mimic the leaf shape of nearby plants, hence its somehow capable of "seeing" its surrounding.

[@6852660]

Please talk about phantom orchids next!

[@thx4hlz875]

it sweats blood. That’s cool

[@RidinWithMyLocsOn]

6:04 i bet this is some forbidden mystical amazonian chanting ritual. First time viewer, just have to say your name is amazin *badumtss* ^^

[@tjpprojects7192]

Bleeding Tooth? More like Strawberries and Cream.

[@moukidelmar]

I'd love an episode, possibly in October, on the pumpkins in the genus Cucabrita

[@ChristopherIves]

Do an episode on the Blolly or Manzanita or Aspen? They all have super interesting bark!

[@Subject_Keter]

You know that picture of the Xmen where the preacher is saying how Nightcrawler cant be made properlu? This fungus is that. It like the most nope fuel i seen.

[@211inprogress]

😆 100%

[@--Paws--]

Is guttation the same reason why freshwater plants "pearl" or make a tiny stream of bubbles underwater?

[@felpshehe]

no, guttation is the excretion of excess water. aquatic plants have other mechanisms to keep themselves at the right inner salt-to-water balance, like face tanking the osmotic pressure or just having less salt. the pearling happens when aquatic plants produce way more oxygen gas than is consumed.

[@anazhmetdin]

It looks tasty

[@CoralReaper707]

It does look like jelly

[@michaelscottland4239]

Bleeding tooth fungus. What a nice smell to wake up to. ☺️😊

[@AnimeShinigami13]

How about a video on yellow flag iris? I recently tried, and failed, to pull one up on a nature walk.

[@tiffanyi5645]

LMAO her bloopers crack me up!! 😭

[@MarkKravchuk]

Great video. Can you guys do ok one about lithops?

[@D.Blaze137]

On one hand, my trypophobia hates this. On the other, im deathly allergic to fungi. Yet here I am, utterly fascinated and wanting to learn more (from a safe distance, like behind a screen lol)

[@repeatdefender6032]

That little nakey babeh kitteh tho!! So cuuuuuuuute

[@timl.b.2095]

Under your post, KZbin offers to "Translate to English"

[@horaciokanashiro-hv2zn]

I'm sure the red color isn't a collateral in scene. One of my guesstimates is that it may act as replacement for flowers the host trees don't produce, a call to polinetors to bring more host vegetation around them. Tasha ⭐

[@horaciokanashiro-hv2zn]

@QueenAurora123 yes, I mean somenthing like: The fungus made inentionaly that red color for its spores or found out that it can make an eyecatching hat sweating water on its top and not dripping like my umbrella on rainy days.

[@AntonioRojas-kc3xk]

I like an explanation to every species of succulent and if the tequila is made by a succulent

[@OctoPie-k7n]

I have trypophobia and the Bleeding Tooth Fungus looks beautifully metal

[@lauriepenner350]

Is it messed up that I think these look like some kind of candy? Like vanilla taffy oozing strawberry syrup. Edit: Oh thank God, I'm not the only one.

[@qs2808]

They are fighting a mushroom kaiju in kaiju no 8 right now

[@049_plague_doctor]

Who committed a murder on the fungi?

[@Capt.Pikles]

Probably @PBSDigitalStudios 😒

[@anasevi9456]

love your videos!

[@tiinaremes2341]

Oh wow! I have to look for those in the pine forest just to see one live. Thanks for the info! Tasha is tah best! XD Fails at the end make me laugh every time. Pretty kitty you got there!💕

[@gruntonium1669]

forbidden jam *must. resist. lick!*

[@BiggestBigBoy]

Looks like that block of cheese I found in the back of the fridge.

[@claysoggyfries]

Looks like peppermint bark. It makes me hungry 😋

[@tonydeluna8095]

At first, I thought it looked like a cranberry cookie 🍪 lol! But yes, I’m warned!

[@mirthenary]

Bleeding tooth fungus. Sounds like a certain old blues singer from the early Simpsons years.

[@mirthenary]

I'd like to see one on the Dolls Eyes plant (white baneberry)😁

[@keithwagg4112]

Wow that is one huge mycelial network

[@techno_otaku]

found Dracula's favorite mushroom

[@GillianMStarlight]

I've seen these before, knew it must be a fungus, but didn't know what it was called. So that's one minor mystery solved.

[@alexanderhikel2350]

Fungi are pretty incredible and we’ve only scratched the surface on what they can do for our health , awesome stuff

[@logenvestfold4143]

“Other plants”? Fungi aren’t plants…

[@vaishnavigosain7197]

Yeah a new level of my trypophobia got unlocked watching this.

[@itsjustsinister1989]

It looks more like jelly minus the peanut butter.

[@sohopedeco]

Please, make a video on the araucaria. ❤

[@divpadsmitais]

I love Tasha

[@2cleanproductions505]

They get rid of everyone who creates clean energy 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@xela552]

Interesting episode of Fungalogic

[@juanherrera3822]

What, pomegranate seeds on my muffin's top? Uh; no thanks!!

[@SomeOneHigh]

People will stop TRIPPIN WHEN THEY DECIDE TO TAKE OFF THE DRUGS 😂😂😂❤❤❤

[@Ghennesph]

Trigger Warning: If the things you see right now are triggering you really badly, stop watching

[@JugheadJones03]

Thanks Tasha!

[@queen-patches233]

its just a phase mom!

[@Rastusmishka12]

Would like to see you guys do a piece on Australia's Gympie Gympie tree

[@ravensdotter6843]

How about an episode on Haememalis spp.?

[@rolfhoystad5981]

have you already covered chanterelle?

[@LadyTink]

Can yall do a video on Portulaca Oleracea (Common Purslane) It's a super cool plant, that is commonly treated as a weed, but it's a nutritious plant, that grows easily. It's also one of the only known examples of Facultative CAM while also using C4 photosynthesis. As a succulent, and is a great source of a lot of nutrients! Also, In general, I think it would be cool if you could cover Facultative CAM in a video! :D

[@amitmitra487]

Well-explained and very interesting research.

[@Kostya2005]

This is terrifying-looking Fungi who are poisonous

[@raeperonneau4941]

You two are so funny!

[@matthewyang7893]

The first guy that discovered this stuff must have been asking himself some serious questions!

[@SuperHansburger93]

Too bad they're so bitter... They look like strawberry jam filled berliners to me, and quite appetizing ^^

[@sabrinasummers4814]

so cool!

[@WillowEverlight]

Amazing!

[@TOGO4545]

Okay but I love your nose ring😢

[@humansizedaperture]

More. Fungi!

[@RichSanDiego1969]

Do you really mess up that much or are you coming to work drunk? I myself love going to work drunk so I'm all for it.

[@ZepHezR]

"Toothlike projections" aside, from the top, some of them actually look like a bombed out bleeding tooth would look, red pulp in the center with only the broken crater-like shell of the enamel outlining the position of the former crown.

[@carolynnunes3922]

So interesting! Thank you and God bless you! God bless us, every one!

[@genisay]

It makes me think less of blood, and more of the strawberry jelly you find in a lot of store bought bakery sweets.

[@nhlredwingsfan]

Very interesting. :-) I don’t use fossil fuel

[@pumpkinslice1811]

It looks like it would taste like a raspberry doughnut but it probably actually tastes like dirt. 😝

[@ChristopherDwiggins]

Like a wild raspberry Danish! I shouldn't have watched this so hungey😅

[@KissyKat]

Loved when you & your boyfriend tasted the hottest peppers! How about tasting the most sour foods ? Or video with foraging for edible plants out in nature? Love your content❤❤❤ Love the kitties too❤❤❤

[@aroundandround]

It looks more tasty than disgusting.

[@dashali4700]

Chinese Asian cuisine prospective to everything

[@iamcyndelaq3515]

Is it odd that I actually think these mushis look delicious?

[@kimbratton9620]

It's quite something!

[@laurentbossy6759]

i thought i was watching the exorcist at 6:05

[@randomaccount6387]

Is it weird that these look delicious to me? 😅 (And i don't even eat mushrooms normally)

[@cstephen98]

Fungus Acne? Facne?
