Fungi really are off the hook. (Adam, apparently slime molds are no longer considered fungi.)
I think of nature as plants and animals, plus a bunch of microscopic stuff. Yet there's this whole other kingdom that diverged from plants and animals a billion years ago---i.e. way back at the dawn of life. Also: taxonomically closer to animals than plants.
These look more like science fiction or even abstract art than real-life organisms!
