28.08.2025 All manner of hypotheses began to proliferate but none had a solid enough foundation to progress from a mere rumor. Some said that a collector of carnivorous plants in Bajo Hondo had accidentally released an exotic species from the Paraguayan Chaco that, after decades absorbing pesticides, had genetically mutated to develop a killer instinct and the now notorious gastric juices. Others believed that this was a Jurassic species that had emerged from an Antarctic glacier and been blown by chance to these shores. Given that its evolutionary competitors had died out tens of millions of years ago it was able to reproduce in a frenzy with no predators to hinder the spread. The more fantastically minded ventured that the plant’s spores had arrived from XTR-6453, an exo-planet from the galaxy of Andromeda, more than two million light years away, carried on a meteorite that had recently crashed into Monte Hermoso whose alien origin accounted for the unusual structure of its digestive glands, which had no equivalent in the carnivorous plants of Earth.Excerpt from The Dream of the Bifidas by MICHEL NIEVA
