The story
In Brazil, John Whitney, an anthropologist for the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago, Illinois, studies a primitive tribe and drinks a soup made by the tribesmen.
After their arrival by air, Margo and her mentor, Albert Frock, examine Whitney's crates and find them empty, except for a bed of leaves and a stone statue of the "Kothoga", a mythical forest monster.
Margo discovers the fungus contains concentrated hormones found in several animal species.
