There are types of mushrooms that live in the forests of the Pacific Northwest that have long, root-like filaments that reach over 2,000 acres, connecting them to all the other mushrooms in the forest. All of the mushrooms that are connected by these rhizomorphs are so genetically close, that they are considered all one organism, making them the largest organism in the world (even larger than a blue whale). For more info on these mushrooms, check out the article by Scientific American here: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/strange-but-true-largest-organism-is-fungus/
