Mystery: LAKE AND EVERY FISH DISAPPEAR in one day and scares locals
Where only two weeks ago was Lake Sakantsi, a wonderful 20-meter-deep water reservoir, located near the town of Pivovarov in the Vladimir region of Russia, now there is only limo: a large area of muddy, moist earth.
In a matter of hours, a 20-meter-deep lake and all its fish mysteriously disappeared.
The strange phenomenon, described as the "disappearance of the year" by the local newspaper "Viázniki-TRK", occurred on October 12 and occurred almost instantly.
Witnesses commented on social networks that "in a few hours the water, with all its fish included, went underground."
Local authorities, however, have reduced the mystery to the amazing event by specifying that it is a lake of Karstisco origin. That is, an accumulation of water stored in a natural depression and contained by limestones, as they are common in the east of the region of Vladimir.
Officials explained that the water was probably contained and formed a pond thanks to a slime plug, which simply broke off on this day.
They also do not rule out the possibility that depression will return to water in the future.
The mystery remains. And the fear that the waters of the region or that there are much more problems underground than they say haunts the nights of the people of the region.
