One of several species of light-coloured Coral mushrooms popping up in the forests now.

Mushrooms may have been part of early human diets: Primate study explores who eats what and when
https://phys.org/news/2025-09-mushrooms-early-human-diets-primate.html

#Mycophagy in #Primates of the Issa Valley, #Tanzania: Theresa Schulze et al. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ece3.72000

"#Mushrooms were seasonally important for red-tailed #monkeys, #chimpanzees, becoming a fall-back food when fruit was scarce... For #baboons, mushrooms were a preferred food, with #fungi forming more than a tenth of their diet despite being available for only half the year."

Mushrooms may not be the first food that comes to mind when we imagine the diets of wild primates—or our early human ancestors. We tend to think of fruits and green leaves as the preferred foods for monkeys and apes.
