Hidden animals in the roots
#3
Regarding the poll, I don't think anyone denies that there are intentional animal shapes in the roots. I think that opinion is only possible when one is overcome by some kind of reactionary anti-pareidolia extremism Wink 

But there is a difference between the following statements:
  • Some plant roots in the VM have intentional zoomorphic features. I expect a near-100% agreement to this.
  • These particular roots have zoomorphic features. I'd expect a core set of non-controversial entries here, but the periphery of the list will vary from person to person. Examples are You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. and You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. from your list: not everyone will see these as intentional allusions to animals.
  • These particular roots have zoomorphic features and these are the animals they allude to. Good luck finding common grounds on that one. Your centipede has a claw in front and a feline-style tail.

That's not to say we should remain completely agnostic about all of them. But more rigorous iconographical analysis and argumentation is required to surpass the "looks to me like..." level of pareidolia.
