I love animals, and I love weird stuff. Some animals are just extremely weird. Share your weird animal stuff (or plants, fungi, whatever) here.

7 zombie animals:

"Cordyceps unilateralis infects ants for travel purposes in order to spread its spores. Oh, it eats them, too, but first the fungus will enter the brain and alter the ant’s behavior over several days, making it climb to the top of a blade of grass. The ant will bite the grass for a secure hold. Only then will the fungus kill the ant and explode out of the head. The spores are then borne on the wind to parts unknown."

Not an animal, but I think slime molds are fascinating:
