[hr]Nastavak projekta ZOOKrka, kojim pobli\u017ee upoznajemo razne \u017eivotinjske vrste Nacionalnog parka \u201eKrka\u201c u njihovom izvornom okoli\u0161u<\/strong><\/p>\n

U sklopu redovitog istra\u017eivanja i monitoringa \u0161pilja u Nacionalnom parku \u201eKrka\u201c snimljen je edukativno-dokumentarni film<\/a> o jednom od njihovih najpoznatijih, ali i najskrivenijih stanovnika \u2013 \u010dovje\u010djoj ribici. Da bi se prona\u0161lo tog iznimnog vodozemca, potrebno je zaroniti u mrak drevnog podzemnog svijeta. S te\u0161kom opremom i s puno po\u0161tovanja u vode \u0161piljskog sustava Miljacka I \u2013 V zaputili su se snimatelji M\u00e9gane Ch\u00eane i Florian Launette, speleolozi Petra Kova\u010d Konrad i Marko Studen i biolog Du\u0161an Jeli\u0107, u potrazi za zmajem. Slo\u017eenost \u0161pilja i jama zahtijeva posebne tehnike i obu\u010dene timove speleologa, tako da se aktivnost speleologa u dubokim jamama i slo\u017eenim \u0161piljama mo\u017ee opisati kao vrsta podzemnog alpinizma.<\/p>\n

Prema legendi, neko\u0107 se vjerovalo da u \u0161piljama \u017eive zmajevi i da su \u010dovje\u010dje ribice njihova djeca. O \u010dovje\u010djim ribicama jo\u0161 uvijek se ne zna mnogo pa stoga i dalje, zbog svojih karakteristika, plijene pa\u017enju znanstvenika, ali i javnosti. Proteus anguinus<\/em>, jedini kralje\u0161njak prilago\u0111en \u017eivotu u podzemlju, endem je i najve\u0107a podzemna vodena \u017eivotinja dinarskog kr\u0161a. O\u010di su joj potpuno zakr\u017eljale, skrivene pod ko\u017eom. Izdu\u017eeno, sitno tijelo bijele je boje s blagim nijansama \u017eute i ru\u017ei\u010daste pa je, zbog sli\u010dnosti s ljudskom ko\u017eom, zbog toga i dobila ime \u010dovje\u010dja ribica. Di\u0161e na tri na\u010dina: \u0161krgama, plu\u0107ima i ko\u017eom. Ima izvrstan njuh za pronalazak oskudne hrane. \u017divi do devedeset godina, a treba joj \u0161esnaest do osamnaest godina da odraste, kao i \u010dovjeku.<\/p>\n

Na podru\u010dju NP \u201eKrka\u201c \u010dovje\u010dja ribica otkrivena je 1989. godine u \u0161pilji Miljacka II. Danas se zna da stalna populacija obitava u \u010detirima speleolo\u0161kim objektima na podru\u010dju NP \u201eKrka\u201c. Monitoring vrste na podru\u010dju Parka pokazao je da je njezina populacija stabilna. Tako\u0111er smo dobili priliku nakratko zaviriti u podzemni svijet \u010dovje\u010dje ribice i dobiti vrijedne materijale koji se mogu pogledati na YouTube kanalu Javne ustanove \u201eNacionalni park Krka\u201c. Snimanja u sustavu Miljacka I \u2013 V kao lokalitetu s najve\u0107om populacijom \u010dovje\u010dje ribice na podru\u010dju Nacionalnog parka \u201eKrka\u201c bila su fokusirana na prikupljanje krupnih kadrova te vrste. Uz \u010dovje\u010dju ribicu, u prvom jezeru obitava izuzetno bogata i raznolika ostala podzemna vodena fauna, pa su snimljeni i kadrovi raku\u0161aca.<\/p>\n

\nThe Search for the Dragon \u2013 a short documentary film about the olm or \u201chuman fish\u201d<\/strong>
\nThe continuation of the ZOOKrka project, in which we learn in detail about the diversity of the animal species of the Krka National park in their original environment<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the context of the constant investigation and monitoring of the caves in the Krka National Park, an educational documentary film<\/a> was filmed about one of its most famous, but also most hidden inhabitants \u2013 the olm or \u201chuman fish\u201d. In order to find this exceptional amphibian, it is necessary to dive into the darkness of the ancient underground world. The cameramen M\u00e9gane Ch\u00eane and Florian Launette, speleologists Petra Kova\u010d Konrad and Marko Studen, and biologist Du\u0161an Jeli\u0107 headed into the waters of the Miljacka I – V cave system with heavy equipment and much respect in the search for a dragon. The complexity of the caves and holes requires special techniques and trained teams of speleologists, so that the activity of speleologists in deep holes and complex caves can be described as a type of underground alpinism.<\/p>\n

According to legend, it was once believed that dragons lived in caves and that the olms or \u201chuman fish\u201d were their children. Not much is known about them even today, so they attract the interest of scientists and also the public because of their interesting characteristics. Proteus anguinus<\/em>, the only vertebrate adapted to life underground, is endemic to and the largest underground aquatic animal of the Dinaric Karst. Its eyes are completely stunted, hidden under the skin. The elongated, tiny body is white with gentle shades of yellow and pink, and because of its resemblance to human skin, it began to be called \u201chuman fish\u201d. It breathes in three manners: through gills, lungs, and skin. It has an excellent sense of smell used for finding scarce food. It lives up to ninety years, and needs sixteen to eighteen years to become adult, just like a human.<\/p>\n

In the area of Krka NP, a olm or \u201chuman fish\u201d was discovered in 1989 in the Miljacka II cave. Today, it is known that a permanent population inhabits four speleological structures in the area of Krka NP. Monitoring of the species in the Park area has shown that its population is stable. We also had the opportunity to take a brief peek into the underground world of the olm and acquire valuable materials that can be viewed on the YouTube channel of the Public Institute of Krka National Park. The filming in the Miljacka I – V cave system, as the site with the largest population of olms or \u201chuman fish\u201d in the area of the Krka National Park, was focused on collecting close-up shots of the species. In addition to olms or \u201chuman fish\u201d, the first underground lake is extremely rich in other subterranean aquatic fauna, so shots of crayfish species were also captured.<\/p>\n
