In a Slovenian cave visited by a million tourists every year, a bizarre and rare amphibian is guarding a significant clutch of eggs.
The olm, a blind salamander found in cave rivers of the Balkans, is thought to live for more than 100 years but reproduces just once or twice a decade.
A female in an aquarium at the Postojna Cave has laid 50-60 eggs - and three of them are now showing signs of growth.
Nobody knows how many will hatch, or even precisely how long it will take.
"Right now it looks like three are good candidates," Saso Weldt, a biologist working at the cave, told the BBC.
He and his colleagues have taken very long-exposure photographs in the darkened cave, in order to glimpse evidence of the tiny embryos developing.
"She started laying eggs on 30 January. She is still laying one or two eggs per day, and they need something like 120 days till they hatch."

The olm (Proteus anguinus) is Europe's only cave adapted vertebrate and is currently classified as Vulnerable. Able to go 10 years without food and living for over 50 years, the olm spends its whole life in the total darkness of a subterranean aquatic world. With no sight, it has super enhanced senses of taste, smell, hearing and a sixth sense with which it can detect its prey's electrical field.
Changes to the land above, including water pollution and damming, are threatening the fresh water cave systems it lives in. With the support of the Zoological Society of London's EDGE of Existence programme, EDGE Fellow Dušan Jelić is working to conserve this unique species.

The olm is living proof that there are more wonders in nature that man can dream of. The blind, amphibious cave dweller looks so alien, it was once thought to be the spawn of mythical creatures - dragons. But its oddities are remarkably adapted to one of the most isolated living environments in the world - the underground caves of Slovenia and Croatia. On Wednesday June 1st, the extremely rare hatching of two baby olms in Slovenia's Postojna cave have re-awakened interest in them.
Here's more about the slithery salamanders:
1. 'BABY DRAGONS'
With their frilly gills, the olm does resemble a miniature dragon, a fantastical animal often depicted with frills on its neck. While they lived underground, they were sometimes washed out of the caves by rain. This probably gave medieval folk in the Balkans the notion that their mature counterparts, dragons, were hiding somewhere in the cavernous depths.
2. SUPER SENSES, BUT BLIND
Living in the dark means that the olms' eyes do not develop, but they have an array of other senses to make up for it. They have a heightened sense of smell, powerful hearing and the ability to detect electric and perhaps even magnetic fields.
3. CAN LIVE UP TO 100 YEARS...
One of the longest lived among amphibian species, it has been estimated that they have a maximum lifespan of 100 years. A more conservative estimate puts their lifespan at 58 to more than 70 years old.
4. ... BUT NEVER REALLY GROWS UP...
They exhibit neoteny - retaining in adulthood traits that can usually be seen only in larvae. The most notable of these are their red, feathery gills.
5. CAN SURVIVE YEARS WITHOUT FOOD
They can survive without food for up to 10 years, reducing metabolic activity, and even re-absorbing their own tissue.
6. CREATURE WITH MANY NAMES
Besides being mistaken for a dragon, olms are also known as the proteus, human fish, European cave salamander. Their scientific name is Proteus anguinus.
7. VULNERABLE SPECIES
Despite having no predators, they are threatened by pollution of the underground water they live in, and the disturbance of their habitats. They are classified by the International Union for Conservation of Nature as "vulnerable".

Olm
The olm or proteus (Proteus anguinus) is an aquatic salamander in the family Proteidae, the only exclusively cave-dwelling chordate species found in Europe. In contrast to most amphibians, it is entirely aquatic; it eats, sleeps, and breeds underwater. Living in caves found in the Dinaric Alps, it is endemic to the waters that flow underground through extensive limestone of karst of Central and Southeastern Europe, specifically southern Slovenia, the Soča river basin near Trieste, Italy, southwestern Croatia, and Herzegovina.
It is also occasionally called the "human fish" by locals because of its skin color, similar to that of white people (translated literally from Slovene: človeška ribica and Croatian: čovječja ribica), as well as "cave salamander" or "white salamander". In Slovenia, it is also known by the name močeril, which translates as "the one that burrows into wetness". It was first mentioned in 1689 by the local naturalist Valvasor in his Glory of the Duchy of Carniola, who reported that, after heavy rains, the olms were washed up from the underground waters and made local people believe that they saw a cave dragon's offspring.

Postojna Cave
Postojna Cave (Slovene: Postojnska jama; German: Adelsberger Grotte; Italian: Grotte di Postumia) is a 24,120 m long karst cave system near Postojna, southwestern Slovenia. It is the second-longest cave system in the country (following the Migovec System) as well as one of its top tourism sites. The caves were created by the Pivka River.
History
The cave was first described in the 17th century by the pioneer of study of karst phenomena, Johann Weikhard von Valvasor. In 1818, when the cave was being prepared for a visit by Francis I, the first Emperor of the Austria-Hungary, a new area of the cave was discovered accidentally by local Luka Čeč.
In 1819, Archduke Ferdinand visited the caves, this is when the caves became officially known as a tourist destination. Čeč became the first official tourist guide for the caves when the caves were opened to the public. Electric lighting was added in 1884, preceding even Ljubljana, the capital of Carniola, of which the cave was part at the time, and further enhancing the cave system's popularity.

The olm is living proof that there are more wonders in nature that man can dream of. The blind, amphibious cave dweller looks so alien, it was once thought to be the spawn of mythical creatures - dragons. But its oddities are remarkably adapted to one of the most isolated living environments in the world - the underground caves of Slovenia and Croatia. On Wednesday June 1st, the extremely rare hatching of two baby olms in Slovenia's Postojna cave have re-awakened interest in them.
Here's more about the slithery salamanders:
1. 'BABY DRAGONS'
With their frilly gills, the olm does resemble a miniature dragon, a fantastical animal often depicted with frills on its neck. While they lived underground, they were sometimes washed out of the caves by rain. This probably gave medieval folk in the Balkans the notion that their mature counterparts, dragons, were hiding somewhere in the cavernous depths.
2. SUPER SENSES, BUT BLIND
Living in the dark means that the olms' eyes do not develop, but they have an array of other senses to make up for it. They have a heightened sense of smell, powerful hearing and the ability to detect electric and perhaps even magnetic fields.
3. CAN LIVE UP TO 100 YEARS...
One of the longest lived among amphibian species, it has been estimated that they have a maximum lifespan of 100 years. A more conservative estimate puts their lifespan at 58 to more than 70 years old.
4. ... BUT NEVER REALLY GROWS UP...
They exhibit neoteny - retaining in adulthood traits that can usually be seen only in larvae. The most notable of these are their red, feathery gills.
5. CAN SURVIVE YEARS WITHOUT FOOD
They can survive without food for up to 10 years, reducing metabolic activity, and even re-absorbing their own tissue.
6. CREATURE WITH MANY NAMES

https://wn.com/'Baby_Dragons'_Olms_Hatch_In_Slovenia_7_Things_About_The_Enigmatic_Olm
The olm is living proof that there are more wonders in nature that man can dream of. The blind, amphibious cave dweller looks so alien, it was once thought to be the spawn of mythical creatures - dragons. But its oddities are remarkably adapted to one of the most isolated living environments in the world - the underground caves of Slovenia and Croatia. On Wednesday June 1st, the extremely rare hatching of two baby olms in Slovenia's Postojna cave have re-awakened interest in them.
Here's more about the slithery salamanders:
1. 'BABY DRAGONS'
With their frilly gills, the olm does resemble a miniature dragon, a fantastical animal often depicted with frills on its neck. While they lived underground, they were sometimes washed out of the caves by rain. This probably gave medieval folk in the Balkans the notion that their mature counterparts, dragons, were hiding somewhere in the cavernous depths.
2. SUPER SENSES, BUT BLIND
Living in the dark means that the olms' eyes do not develop, but they have an array of other senses to make up for it. They have a heightened sense of smell, powerful hearing and the ability to detect electric and perhaps even magnetic fields.
3. CAN LIVE UP TO 100 YEARS...
One of the longest lived among amphibian species, it has been estimated that they have a maximum lifespan of 100 years. A more conservative estimate puts their lifespan at 58 to more than 70 years old.
4. ... BUT NEVER REALLY GROWS UP...
They exhibit neoteny - retaining in adulthood traits that can usually be seen only in larvae. The most notable of these are their red, feathery gills.
5. CAN SURVIVE YEARS WITHOUT FOOD
They can survive without food for up to 10 years, reducing metabolic activity, and even re-absorbing their own tissue.
6. CREATURE WITH MANY NAMES
Besides being mistaken for a dragon, olms are also known as the proteus, human fish, European cave salamander. Their scientific name is Proteus anguinus.
7. VULNERABLE SPECIES
Despite having no predators, they are threatened by pollution of the underground water they live in, and the disturbance of their habitats. They are classified by the International Union for Conservation of Nature as "vulnerable".
