Beneath our feet lies an entire kingdom of life so vast, so influential, yet so hidden that most of us barely acknowledge its existence. Fungi-neither plant nor animal but something else entirely-form one of life's great kingdoms, yet we've documented less than 10% of an estimated 3.8 million species. These organisms sustain all terrestrial life, digesting pollutants, making soil, nourishing plants, and influencing our atmosphere. The more we learn about fungi, the less makes sense without them. Plants only left water 500 million years ago through collaboration with fungi that served as their root systems. Today, over 90% of plants depend on mycorrhizal fungi, forming what scientists call the "wood wide web." Four hundred million years ago, enormous fungal structures called Prototaxites dominated landscapes, standing taller than buildings when plants were barely knee-high. Humans have deployed fungal solutions since before we were Homo sapiens. Neanderthals used penicillin-producing molds to treat infections 50,000 years ago. Beyond medicine, fungi produce 60% of industrial enzymes and 15% of vaccines. Despite their importance, fungi have received minimal scientific attention compared to plants and animals-a striking oversight given how fungi challenge our fundamental concepts about life itself.
