“While on a hunting excursion, two adolescents saw and removed a dead armadillo. The armadillo’s blood got on his boots, which he wiped with his bare hands.

“Spiders, one of the most evolutionary advanced species on the planet. We keept killing them, they began to get better at hiding. They can also convince us we have killed them when we haven’t. Rain doesn’t destroy their webs, not even a pressured hose does anymore.

“There’s a research facility in Tennessee, often referred to as the “Body Farm,” where human decomposition is studied. Donated bodies are left outside in various conditions to observe how they break down over time. This research helps in forensic investigations.”
