Bioluminescence : "Chimpanzee Fire"

Media_httpnewsbbcimgc_srwxu

"The forest floor is barely visible in the low light conditions when it suddenly bursts into life, becoming a neon green blanket of light.

The source of this eerie light is a bioluminescent fungus, known only by the name given to it by locals: "chimpanzee fire"."
