Fungi grow near their food. Dead plants,

animals, and dirt are food for fungi.

Fungi don’t need light like plants. This

is why you find them in dark, smelly

places.

You can see mushrooms growing on

dead trees. When the plant dies, the

fungus uses it for food. Fungi don’t get

sick from eating rotten food. They love

it!
