Atlantis in Tigris river.
In the scorching summers of the Middle East, the relentless heat can dramatically alter the landscape, sometimes revealing ancient cities long lost to time. In 2018, such an event occurred when the waters of the Tigris River receded, uncovering a city built by a mysterious empire thousands of years ago. Archaeologists hurried to the site, eager to uncover the secrets of what they believe to be the Bronze Age city of Zaku, founded over 3,000 years ago and submerged in the 1980s when a dam was constructed.

The Yellowstone volcano
Deep beneath Yellowstone National Park lies one of the world’s largest supervolcanoes, a force of nature responsible for the park’s famous geysers and hot springs. However, this geological marvel also conceals a massive magma chamber, a reservoir far larger than previously imagined. In 2015, researchers from the University of Utah made a startling discovery: not only was the magma chamber significantly more extensive than expected, but there was also a second, even larger reservoir beneath it. Together, these two chambers hold enough magma to fill the Grand Canyon 11 times over.

The underwater people
These individuals can spend over 5 hours a day underwater, making them the closest thing we have to real-life mermaids. Meet the Bajau tribe from Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines. This tribe has developed a unique mutation that allows them to practically live in the sea. Known as the "nomads of the sea," they have resided near the waters of the Sulu Sea by the Philippines for nearly a thousand years. Their homes, built on stilts, are traditional "lepa" houseboats, which facilitate easy access to the water. These small huts can accommodate a family of five, or sometimes even a community of up to 30 people. They are simple to construct, with one hut taking just three weeks to complete, allowing the Bajau to move freely across the seas.

Tips on how survive wild animal attacks.
Here are 13 tips you should know to survive wild animal attacks. Many wild animals can be dangerous, even deadly. If you look at the statistics, it can be alarming. Sharks, for instance, cause just six deaths a year, making their dangerous reputation quite exaggerated. Wolves are responsible for 10 deaths annually, while lions kill 22 people each year. But get ready for this: elephants, those gentle giants, are responsible for over 500 deaths every year, and hippos match them in this grim competition. Crocodiles, surprisingly, are more dangerous than sharks, causing about 1,000 deaths annually. But the deadliest of them all is the snake, with a staggering 100,000 people losing their lives to snake bites each year.

Journey through Human evolution.
There's an incredible place in Ethiopia, East Africa called Hadar. It's a treasure trove of ancient animal fossils, and among them, we made a remarkable discovery: the fossils of a creature known as *Australopithecus afarensis*. One of the most famous finds from this species is a nearly complete skeleton known as "Lucy," named after a Beatles song. Lucy was small, about the height of a kitchen counter, and lived around 3.2 million years ago. She became a huge sensation after her discovery in 1974, giving us significant insights into our early ancestors, the australopithecines.
