The video explains the life cycle of the fungus Pilobolus, which thrives in animal droppings. When ready to reproduce, it orients itself towards the sun and projects its spores onto grass. These spores are ingested by grazing animals like horses and cows. The spores then pass through the animals and are deposited in their waste, allowing the fungus to find a new habitat and continue its life cycle.
