American skunk cabbage (Lysichiton americanus), also called western skunk cabbage, yellow skunk cabbage or swamp lantern, in its natural habitat, a wet and woody place. This plant can be found in swamps and wet woods, along streams and in other wet areas of the Pacific Northwest. The plant got its name, skunk cabbage because of the distinctive "skunky" odor that it emits when it blooms. This odor will permeate the area where the plant grows, and can be detected even in old, dried specimens. The distinctive odor attracts its pollinators, scavenging flies and beetles. The yellow skunk cabbage roots are food for bears, who eat it after hibernating as a laxative or cathartic. The plant was used by indigenous people as medicine for burns and injuries, and for food in times of famine, when almost all parts were eaten.
