Who's to say that it's certain it won't evolve or mutate to affect humans in the future though? We can't rule that out completely. There is also another fungus that limits the spread of the "zombie" spores though. So if it eventually does spread to humans, at least there may be a cure.
Fortunately, no. The Ophiocordyceps camponoti-cazani cannot effect human brains due to the genetics found in this fungus. However, it can effect caterpillars. The caterpillars are forced to melt a tree and then activate to attack other caterpillars and infect them too.

If the world had no fungus it would most likely affect the entire worlds ecosystems. This would mean that lesser organism and higher organisms wouldn't be able to survive due to lack of nourishment provided by the fungus. All i am trying to say is that it would cause certain organisms to go extinct and that in effect causes others to do the same. It's anyone's guess as to who the change would effect primarily.
