Krubera Caves Wonders and Pictures
The deepest known cave on Earth, at 2197 meters deep, is the Krubella Cave located in the Arabica Massif in the breakaway region of Abkhazia, Georgia. Following an expedition by the Ukrainian Cave Association in 2001, Krubera Cave became the deepest known cave at 1,710 meters, surpassing the previous record holder for the deepest cave in the Austrian Alps by 80 meters.
Krubera Cave is also known as Voronya Cave, meaning that the Crow Cave is the only known cave so far that lies 2000 meters below the surface. Krubella Cave, named after Russian geographer Alexander Kluber, drew explorers and scientists to discover the world’s deepest abyss because of Jules Verne’s inspirational novel “Journey to the Center of the Earth” And fame. Krubera Cave is definitely the dream of every explorer, caver, and explorer who seeks to travel to the depths of the earth and unravel the secrets of the deepest known natural cave in the world.

Earth Species:
Among the various endemic species of spiders, scorpions, shrimps and beetles at various depths in the Kurubela cave, the most interesting is a primitive eyeless and wingless insect that inhabits the depths of the cave. The so-called Plutomurus ortobalaganensis is the latest discovery made by researchers at a depth of 6,500 feet in 2010. plutomurus ortobalaganensis belongs to a group of insects called springtails that live in complete darkness, feeding on fungi and decomposing organic matter.
Team up:
Descending to the deepest cave ever required shrinking jagged rocks and traversing narrow underground pools, some of which are reported to be more than 300 feet deep. Anyone embarking on this path must be prepared for the task at hand, as it requires a lot of effort and a lot of teamwork to accomplish.
