11 Surprises Of Nature That Will Make Anyone Say "Really?" (Drunk Birds Are Totally Worth Looking At)

Smart mushroom moves from place to place, makes plans, and follows a diet. Experiments performed using the Physarum polycephalum mushroom showed that it has a special kind of intelligence, not only can it think but it can also plan. The mushroom is able to find the shortest ways out of a labyrinth if there's a goal (food), memorize its movement trajectory, and react to repetitive actions. The mushroom travels using protoplasm that moves back and forth and such a cycle takes around 2 minutes. Scientists compare the mushroom's intelligence to smart insects, like ants. The surprising fact is that Physarum polycephalum has neither a brain nor a nervous system. This mushroom is a great example of willpower since it doesn't simply eat but it keeps carbs and proteins in balance as it needs them to stay alive and in shape.
