The real ‘House of Dragons’: So it’s a cave in Slovenia. And the baby dragons are flourishing—and rule the place. These almost translucent aquatic salamanders “have adaptive features that are nothing short of legendary—even without wings and fire,” Nat Geo reports. (Above, the olm, a sightless salamander that can live to be a hundred years old.)
