The Fungus Among Us - Amanita pantherina - Panther Cap - 02

fau-panthercap2.jpg

(No. 2)  This is a photo of a more mature panther cap.  The dome shape of the cap has flattened out.  Note the appearance of the others in the patch.  The panther cap looks very similar to the blusher (Amanita rubescens), which is edible when cooked, but is so similar at various stages of its growth that we advise against eating any of the Amanita species.  We can enjoy the beauty of their creation without eating them.

lamb-right lamb-left Presented here are just a few of the countless components of God's creation.  Just as we cannot have human and animal life without water and plants, neither can we have lasting peace without love and compassion.  It is our hope and prayer that this series will motivate people to live and act in a cruelty-free manner; that we would no longer hurt or destroy each other, the animals or our environment.
