Death-Cap Mushrooms Are Terrifying and Unstoppable

Most poisonous mushrooms won’t kill you-they’ll simply cause a severe headache or vomiting. Death-cap mushrooms are not like the others. As little as half an Amanita phalloides contains enough toxin to kill an adult human. Ingestion of the poison in death-cap mushrooms, known as amatoxin, is responsible for 90 percent of deaths related to mushroom poisoning worldwide. Worse still, death caps can resemble nontoxic mushrooms and are said to be quite tasty. You might not know you’ve been poisoned until days after eating the highly toxic fungi.
While the mushrooms are historically endemic to Scandinavia and parts of northern Europe, the cultivation of non-native species of trees in North America has led to a “mushroom boom” in some areas of the continent.
“We’ve opened Pandora’s box,” the author Craig Childs says in a new animated video from The Atlantic. “There is no way you can stop them.” For more information, read “Death-Cap Mushrooms Are Spreading Across North America": www.theatlantic.com/science/a...

That’s true. The main problem is these death caps closely resemble perfectly good and edible forest mushrooms that have been harvested and eaten in the “old country” back in parts of Europe. I believe death caps vs the perfectly edible ones they resemble have different colored spores so a spore print will ID properly but only serious mycologists generally make spore prints. Thing I don’t like is creepy/scary videos like this (with over exaggerated spidery appendages and green smoky penetrations of our internal organs) make people afraid of all mushrooms and they go around destroying all they see or frighten children (Don’t touch that!!) even over the most benign of basic grass or forest mushrooms and then people and kids are scared of mushrooms unnecessarily. Sure many will say better safe than sorry but if you applied that to everything we’d never leave the house. Education and earning is fine. Silly exaggerations and just that and rarely helpful.

@@richs4878 Problem with Death caps is that they have few lookalikes from Amanita family here in europe.

There really is no need to stop them, just learn to recognize them and leave them alone. They are in fact great mushrooms for the environment, as they help the trees quite a lot, and yes, other, edible mushrooms that grow off of the same roots. I picked up delicious boletes more than once that were growing less than three feet away from death caps and guess who helped them grow big and delicious like that. The slugs love the death cap too and they get no poisoning from it and we gotta leave something for them to munch on too, in this case we have no choice but leave something for them.

If a mushroom has tubes and pores it probably is edible if gills better leave it if you're not a specialist. Better yet, not to eat species you don't know.

I used to live in Seattle, and they were everywhere. They are gorgeous mushrooms, and look quite tasty to children. You have to be extra careful.

So, is this a problem if we just tell people 'don't eat mushrooms you don't 100% recognize'? Where I live, all the kids get told not to touch fly amanitas or death caps.

A few notes on this piece from a novice mycologist: this is not some issue unique to Death Caps. Many mushroom species have traveled around the world by riding on human activity (some literally, in the case of spores). It's just that Death Caps are a species which is deathly poisonous to humans, and easily mistaken for something edible. One this note, it would've been nice to have included a brief note on identification. The illustrations were also a bit misleading. The mushrooms you see above ground are just a temporary fruiting body (for spreading spores). The actual organism is a dense network of threads known collectively as "mycelium", and this exists under the ground, collecting nutrients and water for itself and its host's roots. Mushrooms don't have roots like a tree, mushrooms ARE the roots, and the thing we call "mushroom" is just a reproductive organ, like a fruit.

Sounds like a challenge! 👀! Deathcap exterminator at your service ! /srsly tho, widespread education of these are probably a big help in dealing with them.

Why exterminate them? They're vital to our ecosystem
