Any Animal That Touches This Lethal Lake Turns to Stone
Lake Natron in Tanzania, Africa.
The Deadly Lake……that Stonifies!
There’s a deceptively still body of water in Tanzania with a deadly secret…
It turns any animal it touches to stone
Truth Behind the Lake
The rare phenomenon is caused by the chemical makeup of the lake.
The Chemical Composition
The creatures pepper the area around the lake due to its constant pH of 9 to 10.5 — an extremely basic alkalinity that preserves these creatures for eternity.
Seems Like a Horror Story!
The petrified creatures it leaves behind seem straight out of a horror film.
