The greatness of the structure doesn’t stop there. Researcher Chen Lixin, the expedition leader, recently told Xinhua that “there are species in this cave that have never been reported or described to science”.

Another member of the team, Zhang Yuanhai, a senior engineer from the Karst Institute of Geology, added that the bottom of the sinkhole was “like another world”.

According to Ancient Oringins, many scientists around the world eagerly await the next data on new species, especially Chinese botanists, in the context of this country’s efforts to plant trees to fight the disease. desertification, but ran into trouble because the selected tree species used up too much water. New plants growing in unbelievable places can help make a difference.
