How Millions of Stingless Jellyfish Ended Up in One Lake
It might look like a scene from another planet, but Kakaban Lake is found on Earth - on the South-East Asian island of Borneo. Its isolated position and mix of salt- and freshwater make it the perfect habitat for all manner of unique creatures, including the golden jellyfish. ↠Subscribe: kzread.info...
Dive into the world of this fascinating lake-dweller as we explore how jellyfish came to be trapped here in the first place and the remarkable farming technique they use to survive.

For scientists, these lakes serve as proxies to explore what may come as ocean waters heat up because of climate change. The lakes have environmental conditions that are warmer, more acidic and less oxygenated. Intan Suci Nurhati, climate and ocean researcher at the Indonesian Institute of Sciences, see's these ecosystems as “a projection of our future climate." 🔬👨🏽🔬

you can wait until indonesia new capital establish, at least they are in the same provinces with this lake, which will reduce the cost if you transit in the airport. but I am sure it will still cost you a lot, even for an average indonesian like me it's much cheaper to just going to australia twice than visiting this lake, other than that it's located in protected area, so it'll be hard to reach this area by using car or any vehicles. but I wish you can visit this lake soon 👍

@@terramater I know! I really hope that the majority of people mostly the more powerful and richer ones who have the capability to help the environment notice how important protecting the environment is, stop the habits which makes it worse and start new ones that make the environment better. The Philippines which is my country is said to be mega diverse which is great but my country is really facing environmental issues such as population decline in plants and animals, pollution, habitat loss and climate change caused by human activities like deforestation , hunting and dynamite fishing which I really hope would be fixed in the future. Sure the amount or organisms here are a lot compared to other countries and there are even a huge amount of endemic species here but if the said issues won't be helped, they might be wiped out making being "mega diverse" mean nothing which is what I am worried about.

*Jellyfish have no brain *STARTS FARMING* Kudos to the filming crew for this amazing content. and Narrators of this channels are awesome as every time.. keep up the quality work..
I've been there before at 2013. I went there for my church's christmas trip (Since Indonesia had no winter soooo). And I've swum with them and even touched them XD. However, since I was kinda afraid of them, instead of holding them facing upwards, I hold them upside down, leaving their tentacles facing upwards :"). I was still very young at that time tho so... But when one of the people who came with me hold them with the jellyfishes' tentacles facing downwards, her hand went itchy afterwards, maybe due to the small amount of sting the jellyfish had stung her. But due to my experience, it is a worthy place to visit. I mean, when can you actually swim with jellyfishes beside you :D
I saw this video years ago. Absolutely epic the symbiosis thats happened. Gave me ideas of blimps filled with wheat.... maybe someday.
Before this I'd never been so thankful for an ad
