What's at The Bottom of The Worlds Deepest Lake?

Have you ever wondered what’s at the bottom of the world’s deepest lake? The deepest lake is the ancient Lake Baikal located in southern Russia and believed to be at least 25 million years old. Lake Baikal is a freshwater lake that is currently being studied for its rise in temperature in the past 70 years.

Additionally, they also found fossils of ancient parrots, small mammals, and sponges. Watch the video below to see what else is found at the bottom of Lake Baikal:
