“All that live must die, passing through nature to eternity.” - William Shakespeare
Mankind is tied to nature in a million ways; our cultures have been shaped by it and have depended on it for survival. Our relationship with wildlife that are highly dangerous is a special one, commanding our respect and securing a place in the stories that we tell. We fear some as we fear death, casting them into the roles of evil omens and harbingers of misfortune. Others we have harnessed, using their toxins as weapons and a means of spiritual connection. Every plant and animal within this image, many of which are deadly, has its place in stories of death and the underworld from cultures around the globe. To fear death is human nature, but through these stories we find solace in life and the world around us.
