Why We Are Not Allowed to Visit Antarctica

Drinking water from the ocean might seem tempting with all that water around, but there's a big problem – it's salty, really, really salty! Ocean water contains about 35 grams of salt per liter, and our bodies can't handle that much salt. When we drink salty water, it actually dehydrates us because our kidneys have to work overtime to filter out the excess salt. Desalination, a process to remove salt from seawater, is used in some places to make it drinkable, but it's expensive and energy-intensive. Plus, the leftover salty brine can harm marine ecosystems when released back into the ocean.

Back in 1937, Earhart's plane vanished into thin air while attempting a historic flight around the world. Fast forward to the present day, and some researchers are pointing their fingers – or should we say claws? – at giant coconut crabs. These enormous crustaceans, found on the remote Pacific island of Nikumaroro, could have scavenged on Earhart's remains, leaving only bones behind. Could these crabs really be the culprits in erasing the trail of this aviation legend? This intriguing theory might finally unlock the secrets that have baffled historians for decades.

You won't believe what some little ants are up to in the rainforest – they're like nature's landscape artists! These tiny critters create what's known as "Devil's Gardens," which sounds spooky, but it's actually pretty impressive. They do this by teaming up with a special type of tree called the "Duroia" tree. The ants move in and start chomping on all the other plants around their tree buddies, leaving a clear circle. The Duroia tree provides sweet nectar to the ants in exchange for protection. So, it's like a mutual gardening project where ants play the landscapers, and the tree acts like the sugar supplier. Mother Nature's teamwork at its finest, right there in the rainforest! 🐜🌳🌿🌲 CreditsAnimation is created by Bright Side. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com Check our Bright Side podcast on Spotify and leave a positive review! https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD34jRLrMrJux4VxV Subscribe to Bright Side: https://goo.gl/rQTJZz ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our Social Media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/brightside Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brightside.official TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@brightside.official?lang=en Stock materials (photos, footages and other): https://www.depositphotos.com https://www.shutterstock.com https://www.eastnews.ru ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For more videos and articles visit: http://www.brightside.me Learn more about your ad choices.
