Mushroom hunter stumbles on 2 bodies in roadside ditch
“If it hadn’t been for the man out hunting for mushrooms, it may have been another couple days before these bodies were found,” Madison County Sheriff Robert Hertz said.

You never know what you're going to find while hunting for the elusive and tasty morel mushrooms.

2. Sadly, that's pretty normal
seems like whenever someone goes missing in the fall/winter, some mushroom or other hunter stumbles across them come spring. Sad :(

4. Mmmmmmm morels! They are so goood.
Just a lil butter some salt and pepper... damn I love spring and fall for fungophileing. You just reminded me to hook back up with my local mushroomer club, thanks!

Oh yeah corpses could ruin your day, but not your hobby... not unless it happened to ya 2 or 3 times anyway. Mushroom hunting is too good for being so easily discarded.
