Olm Salamander
Despite the horrors and strangeness we’ve mentioned in the circumstances above, not all caves are filled with gruesome stores. If you’re lucky enough, it’s possible to stumble upon the natural beauty found within the depths of caves. This is specifically true for the Olm Salamander, which is a recent discovery that fascinated the scientific community. This adorable and unusual amphibian can be found in Slovenia and Croatia, and can stay for as long as a hundred years. They retain the same set of gills throughout those hundred years and they also happen to be completely blind, using their electro-sensation to feel around their environment.
