Great video Cliff, an article I had seen last year talked about the increased interest in foraging these days. They emphasized the point that with many new foragers, we will see accidental poisoning rates rise. By first learning what can hurt you, folks can greatly reduce these incidents

@UNDERST0RY 2 года назад

We are definitely going to see rises in poisonings, also due to increasing reliance on identification apps which are far from reliable.

@@UNDERST0RY, oh ya...then there is that. Could we call that a risk multiplier?🤔

Superb explainer, labelling and clear info. Info starts @ 2mins 30. Grateful thanks. Forewarned is forearmed.

I've become oddly fascinated by destroying angel recently. Thanks for such clear information.

@skepticalgenious 2 года назад

Thanks man. I was %90 sure I found a amanita vaginata. The veil with white gills. Barely slight pink on the bottom of the gills. Paper thin. The vulva is almost identical. Also the pileas/them has the shaggy stuff. 😂 while commenting i found another amanita. It's yellow.

Hello. Which part of the Acadian forest are you in - the east cost of USA or east coast of Canada. I was wondering if we have this mushroom in Nova Scotia.

@UNDERST0RY 2 года назад

I am in Canada but you will find these and similarly toxic Amanitas throughout much of the region and beyond.

@sukumac9013 2 года назад

@@UNDERST0RY . Thank you - I’m in Nova Scotia. Very much enjoying the series .

Amanita Virosa is one of the deadly ones in your area.

@Dakota.2018 8 месяцев назад

One peice will not kill you. It takes a 50 gram mushroom or 21mg of extract.

@spencerburrows3525 2 года назад

Where do these grow? USA Euro Asia??

@UNDERST0RY 2 года назад

A number of Amanita species go by the common name "destroying angel". They are found throughout Europe and North America. Similarly deadly Amanitas are doubtless in Asia, though they might not share the same common name.

@baldieman64 10 месяцев назад

I will pick and consume half a dozen species that I can positively identify, the rest are a no-no, and anything with white gills stays in the field.

@fattymcbastard6536 10 месяцев назад

Don't miss the opportunity to try pine mushrooms though (Tricholoma magnivelare)! Once you've had one in your hand, and smelled it, you'll never mistake it.

"One piece will kill you"..... Come on man, no need to lie for shock value. Pretty unlikely that that small of an amount would kill someone and they would have to eat it in the first place.

@johnbonner5284 Год назад

I ate about a 6'th of a button of 1 that hadn't opened up from that flask under the gills, today is my 3rd day Monday morning from 7:30 Friday morning, been taking activated charcoal, since Saturday morning. Took 2 capsules as soon as I bought it, and been taking a capsule every 12 hours since! I test gravely mowers here in Florida, I'm doing OK! Was my first time ever to give a damn bout wanting to munch on mushrooms from the wild, and so far, I hope it's not my last! Did go through diarea Saturday morning, but since the activated charcoal use, I haven't experienced any other symptoms!

It takes less than a quarter teaspoon to make a painful death come around in 3-4 days. Look it up.

Destroying angels scare me off of every trying a Ma'am on Motorcycle. I had these all over my yard one year, and thought they were destroying angels, until I picked a couple and had a proper inspection. Even so, the similarities between the two are just too close for my comfort. I already forage for a huge variety of mushrooms, and I think I'll just leave Ma'am on Motorcycle off of my list, as well as all amanitas, even though there are a few edible species. There's simply no need to mess around with any "iffy" mushrooms.
