13. Alice Algae and Freddy Fungus
Long ago there was a fungus named Freddy. Now Freddy Fungus was very good at building houses,
but he wasn’t a very good cook. In fact, he couldn’t even make his own food; like all fungi, he had to find dead plants or animals to eat, and sometimes he couldn’t find much food.
One day, while Freddy Fungus was sitting on a tree stump, he looked over at a rain puddle and saw something green growing there.
The green thing looked up at him and smiled.
“What’s your name,” the green thing said.
“I ’m Freddy Fungus. What’s your name?”
“I ’m Alice Algae and I was just making some food out of sunshine. Are you hungry?”
Freddy Fungus blew right over there, and people say that Freddy Fungus and Alice Algae took a lichen (liking) to each other. They decided to get married. And from then on, Freddy Fungus would make a house and Alice Algae would make food and they could live wherever they wanted, as long as there was sunlight.
That’s why to this day, when we see a lichen plant, we tell the symbiotic story of a fungus and an alga that fell in love. Keep that in mind the next time you see lichen on a rock.
