💁🏻‍♀️ ICYMI: In #Siberia’s #SakhaRepublic, the #Batagay megaslump – nicknamed the Gateway to #Hell – has tripled in size since 1991 as #permafrost thaws.

The process releases 4,000-5,000 tons of #carbon annually and has uncovered a 50,000-year-old baby #mammoth (2024) and an extinct #horse with the oldest liquid #blood ever found (2018).
