An undersea submersible has discovered crabs, worms, and fish thriving on World War II explosives in the Baltic Sea, a location previously considered toxic to marine life. Scientists found more creatures living on the warheads than the surrounding seabed at a former weapons dump.
Andrey Vedenin, a study author with Germany’s Senckenberg Research Institute, expressed his surprise: "We were prepared to see significantly lower numbers of all kinds of animals... But it turned out the opposite."
