i'm sorry to answer so late it's because i skiped this thread for a long time but i must tell this is the most dangerous bolet

The satan bolete, or Rubroboletus satanas, is a poisonous mushroom that should be avoided when picking. Belonging to the Boletaceae family, it shares the main characteristics of boletes: a robust stem, yellow tubes, and a round cap.
Learn how to recognize the satan bolete to avoid picking it when picking:The cap is hemispherical, measuring between 1between 15 and 25 cm in diameter, or even 30 cm. The cuticle is matte, whitish, or grayish-white. Young satan bolete mushrooms have a round cap that gradually spreads out and flattens with age. The satan bolete is the only bolete to have a cap without a hint of pink.
The stem of the satan bolete is the largest and most rounded of the boletes. It is a light orange color, has a rounded rib, and is covered with a dark red web. Pores At first orange-yellow, then orange-red to bluish-red to the touch.While it can be confused with other boletes in appearance, its odor sets it apart from the others. Indeed, the satan bolete gives off a nauseating odor resembling that of spoiled meat.
Habitat Favoring calcareous soils, the satan bolete grows in deciduous woods, under oak or beech trees. It appears in summer and early autumn (from June to October). This mushroom seeks warmth and does not grow in northern regions.
 
Satan bolete has a big fat stem. That looks more like a deer mushroom or something just from the stem. It’s also definitely pinkish.

May be wrong though
 
probably slugs- they love them. The slugs out here are regularly in the 3-5" range
