The Science and Mystery of Fairy Rings

Mystery of Everything - Podcast készítő Gabriella Rozefort and Brenna Hatter

Kategóriák:

A fairy ring is a naturally occurring ring or arc of mushrooms. The rings may grow to over 10 meters (33 ft) in diameter, and they become stable over time as the fungus grows and seeks food underground. Fairy rings are the subject of much folklore and myth worldwide—particularly in Western Europe. They are often seen as hazardous or dangerous places, and linked with witches or the Devil in folklore. Conversely, they can sometimes be linked with good fortune. Subscribe to our Patreon Follow us on Instagram Listen to our sister podcast: History of Everything Learn more about your ad choices.
