By the Emerald Coast, near Deer Lake State Park, leave the road and bike path to enter a small opening in the forest. Pine needles and lichens carpet the ground. Deer lichens are called "deer moss" locally and deer eat them for sustenance. See an external link to a photo of a deer eating deer moss below. Humans on TV shows Survivorman and Man vs. Wild used deer moss to eat. Look around for awhile and see other edible plants and garbage. People litter wherever they go with packaging of whatever sustains them, such as food, drink, or toys. Envisioning multiple symbiosis with deer lichens and evolutionary beings sustains my imaginative quest. For more info, click hotspots in the panorama to go to my website, wholeo.net.
