Cordyceps

In the talk from Paul Stamets about mushrooms saving the planet he talks about fungi that infects a host such as an ant and uses its body as a growing ground so it can spore. I found this video of Planet Earth with David Attenbourgh about the Cordyceps fungi that do this and found it really interesting staying along the lines of the way nature overcomes anything really.
