Checking some game cameras today and noticed this unusually large Mushroom growing.

It is probably 8" tall and around 8"-9" across.

This is Deep East Texas....if that helps.

If you haven't look here and don't find then it must be a rare or new type.

looks like some kind of split-gil fungi. Try downloading the Seek App by iNaturalist on your phone. Kids have had fun with that one.

I dont know what kind of exact mushroom that is, but i would be careful, it could cut you and even kill you if you try to eat it….though i dont know how it will open the knife, just the fact it is holding a knife for you to see tells me it is a deadly shroom.

Photos are out of order.

1st pic should be last. I 'disarmed' it. No danger to anyone. wink
