Sumatran Stink Flower


Gracing the Sumatran Jungle like a glowing red anus is the Rafflesia arnoldii; a flower that grows from a cabbage like ball into a meter-wide, 11 kg monster plant.

It’s actually a parasite and it stinks like rotting meat so, unlike the cute, itty-bitty seal cubs, there’s no hippies trying to protect it. I’m not saying it’s bad to protect the cute things, but I am saying that nature is sometimes gross, amoral and reeking. And those things are just as worthy of our love, attention and care.

Except for hamsters. Hamsters can go fuck themselves.
