From Daily Mail (caution: tabloid):
At first glance at these photos, you’d be forgiven for mistaking them as stills from the latest series of ‘The Last of Us‘.
But the fungus in the photos is very much real, and was recently spotted in the New Forest. The alien-like fungus has earned the nickname ‘Devil’s Fingers’ thanks to its ghoulish, hand-like appearance. What’s more, it gives off a disgusting odour, which those unlucky enough to come across it have described as ‘like rotting flesh.’
