SC “The Reflection of This 19th Century Bridge Creates a Perfect Stone Circle, No Matter Your Viewing Angle!” SC

Image
Also called the Devil’s Bridge, Rakotzbrücke in Germany looks like something from a fairy tale. The bridge and its reflection make up a perfect stone circle, regardless where you view it from. Image source: Rough Guides The name “Devil’s Bridge” is due to the fact that in 1860, when it was built, such structures were regarded so dangerous or miraculous that they must have been built by Satan. Of course, the Rakotzbrücke was not built by the devil, but by a certain Rötschke, after he acquired ownership of the park. The wealthy landowner, who was a nature lover, made the 200-hectare English garden a fairytale with the help of a landscape architect he hired. Emphasizing aesthetics instead of utility, both ends of the bridge have thin rock spires installed, to give the illusion of natural basalt columns, which commonly occur in many parts of Germany. And yes, you can definitely cross it. Image credit: cнαт-ɴoιr^^annette Well, in theory. Nowadays you ca

LS ” “Extinction Alert: Last Female of World’s Rarest Giant Turtle Species Passes Away ”

Image
This is what extinction looks like. The last known female of the rarest kind of giant turtle in the world has just died. The female Yangtze giant softshell turtle passed away at the Suzhou Shangfangshan Forest Zoo in China, where she has lived since 2008. She was put under anesthesia during a fifth attempt to artificially inseminate her, a procedure that people hoped would help save her species from extinction. This time, she never woke up. With just three male Yangtze giant softshell turtles left, the death of the last female makes the species functionally extinct. “It is tragic that the only known female of this species has died,” the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) wrote in a statement, “but the real tragedy here is that this species has been decimated to near extinction by hunting and habitat destruction.” The female was first brought to the zoo in hopes that she would successfully mate with a 100-year-old male Yangtze giant softshell in residenc

LS “””This Mother Goose, Alongside Her Partner, Cares for 47 Goslings.””

Image
  There are many instances in nature where a mother is found taking care of her babies. However a Canadian man named Mike Digout accidentally discovered a mother goose taking care of 47 goslings and presumably, not all of them are her own! Mike is a nature photographer. He started working from home, like everyone else, during the coronavirus pandemic. According to LadBible, he has been taking walks along the Saskatchewan riverbank near where he lives in Saskatoon, and that’s where he noticed the goose. Apparently he is not a big fan of the Canadian geese but he was intrigued by their activity, noticing that they were looking for places to nest. In May, Mike noticed the first batch of goslings had hatched and he started paying more attention to them.  “They’re so cute when they’re little – like little Tennis balls with legs. So I started taking pictures of the goslings while I was waiting for the beavers to come around,” Dodo  quoted Mike as saying.

A ‘monster’ catfish could be the largest ever caught at a staggering 9ft 4 1/4 inches, after an Italian angler fought with the bottom-dwelling beast for 43 minutes before eventually reeling it in. What started as a normal day of fishing on the river Po for Alessandro Biancardi soon turned into the stuff of dreams for the keen angler. He managed to hook the record-breaking catch after just a few casts, but was ‘sent into a panic’ after he realised he was facing the biggest fish of his 23-year career completely alone. The pro fisherman, who is part of the with MADCAT fishing team, did not realise the scale of the wels catfish until it started to breach the surface, and struggled to haul it in from his boat and on land. Alessandro said that while he was curious about the weight of the behemoth, he didn’t want to distress it too much, and decided to release it ‘hoping it could give another angler the same joy he gave to me.’ Italian angler Alessandro Bia

Divers in Australia have made a ѕһoсkіпɡ discovery at the Ьottom of a river – a giant moпѕteг python! The massive snake was found by a group of divers who were exploring the river’s depths. The snake measured over 5 meters in length and weighed more than 100 kilograms, making it one of the largest pythons ever recorded. The divers were understandably ѕtᴜппed by the sight of the enormous snake. They сарtᴜгed video footage of the python and shared it online, where it quickly went ⱱігаɩ. The video shows the python ɩуіпɡ on the riverbed, seemingly unperturbed by the presence of the divers. Pythons are a common ѕрeсіeѕ in Australia, but specimens of this size are extremely гагe. The snake’s exасt age is unknown, but it’s believed to be several decades old. While the discovery of the giant python is certainly іmргeѕѕіⱱe, it’s also a гemіпdeг of the importance of respecting and preserving natural habitats.

SY The largest freshwater fish in the world has been captured, resembling an enigmatic river creature of equivalent weight to that of a grizzly bear, as it is pulled from the water.

A local fisherman in Cambodia has captured a true river monster that scientists believe is the world’s largest freshwater fish. Moul Thun, 42, hooked a massive stingray that weighs 661 pounds and measures 13-feet-long, breaking the previous record of a catfish, discovered in Thailand in 2005, which clocked in at 646 pounds. The stingray, nicknamed ‘Boramy’ or ‘full moon’ in the Khmer language, was snagged in the Mekong River that is famous for hosting various species of large fish. A team of scientists from the Wonders of Mekong research project helped tag, measure and weigh the ray before it was released back into the river .

On a tranquil coastal stretch, where the waves gently kiss the shore, a curious phenomenon has captured the attention of marine experts and beachgoers alike. It’s the story of a legless marine creature that has left everyone baffled with its unexpected vocalizations after washing up on the sandy beach. The creature’s arrival was met with a mixture of fascination and bewilderment. With no limbs to speak of, it appeared to slither its way onto the shore, drawing curious onlookers from far and wide. Its sleek, elongated body and smooth, scale-like skin hinted at its marine origins, but its lack of identifiable features left experts scratching their heads. As the creature lay stranded on the sand, it began emitting peculiar vocalizations that sounded unlike anything ever heard before. Its cries were hauntingly beautiful, echoing across the beach and captivating all who heard them. Marine biologists and zoologists scrambled to identify the source of these Mysterious
