They look so cute when I'm not near them and anxious because they unnerve me!

Does it move like slime molds are known to?

They don't react to touch. You'd have to stare at them for a while to notice anything, all footage I've seen are timelapses. And I think they don't move at all when sporulating.

I don't think Lycogala moves around like you would see Fugilo septica (dog vomit) move over time, creeping along. Usually just these little pink or brownish balls. If you poke them with a stick when young they'll exude a paste-like substance.

Wolf's milk slime mold
I believe this is wolf's milk slime mold, but I'm not certain. I found this yesterday while on a short hike. Quite a beautiful specimen.

Ah, thank you!
