The largest living organism on earth is a honey fungus (Armillaria ostoyae) that stretches across an estimated area of 2,384 acres (9.6 square kilometers) in the Malheur National Forest in Oregon. This enormous fungus is primarily exists underground as a network of mycelium—the thread-like structures that make up the main structure of a mushroom.
