A beautiful specimen of a fly agaric - Amanita muscaria. Commonly described as poisonous though there are few documented human deaths from its consumption, and after having been parboiled it is eaten as a food in parts of Europe, Asia, and North America. It has a history of being used for a hallucinogenic experience.

One of the most recognisable fungi, the Fly Agaric - Amanita muscaria are often seen having been eaten by any number of wild animals yet this one - a good 4 inches across is the most perfect one I have ever seen.

The Fly Agaric - Amanita muscaria is often cited as being poisonous and whilst I am not recommending anyone tries it there is a long history of it being used as a hallucinogenic. Despite having this effect on humans many animals seem to eat it with little to no known effect other than curing hunger.
