Seriously this time, does going into a cave environment sound safe?
Considering that entire species of invertebrates and vertebrates have
evolved to live in this particular environment, why does any spelunker
feel safe considering what forms of fungi and bacteria may have also
evolved there also?
IIRC, there is at least one cave that has a potentially dangerous form
of bacteria living in it that should not be inhaled, requiring the use
of breathing gear during the entire stay in the cave.
And what the Hell was the "White Nose Syndrome" about?
