That’s crazy good. I wonder what the evolutionary reason behind it is.
My guess is just to scare things that eat it? Idk it is super interesting
It looks kinda like something an AI could generate and I feel mildly uneased by this lol
More like mildly terrifying. No thanks monkey flowers.
Looks like evil monkeys.
I just checked if this was real (yes I do that a lot :D) and omg, it is! I had never heard of it.
The wiki showed another version of this, called Orchis simia:
Orchis simia, commonly known as the monkey orchid, is a greyish pink to reddish species of the genus Orchis. It gets its common name from its lobed lip which mimics the general shape of a monkey’s body.[1]
Look how adorable!
They even have little penises!
