The seals that should not exist: 100,000 trapped far from the sea in Siberia

وہ سیلز جو نہیں ہونی چاہئیں: سائبیریا میں سمندر سے دور 100,000 سیلز کیسے پھنس گئیں؟

वे सील जो नहीं होनी चाहिए: साइबेरिया में समुद्र से दूर 1,00,000 सील कैसे फँस गईं?

The seals that should not exist: 100,000 trapped far from the sea in Siberia

Key points

اہم نکات

मुख्य बातें

  • Around 100,000 seals live in Lake Baikal in the middle of Siberia, roughly 2,000 miles from the nearest ocean — a puzzle scientists have debated for generations.
  • The Baikal seal is the world's only seal species that lives entirely in fresh water, and researchers believe its ancestors reached the ancient lake long ago, possibly through rivers or during a warmer age when waterways linked the region to the sea.
  • The lake's isolation then shaped them into a species found nowhere else on Earth, making them one of nature's strangest survivors.
  • سائبیریا کے بیچ میں واقع بیکال جھیل میں تقریباً 100,000 سیلز رہتی ہیں، جو قریب ترین سمندر سے تقریباً 2,000 میل دور ہے — یہ ایک معمہ ہے جس پر سائنسدان نسلوں سے بحث کر رہے ہیں۔ بیکال سیل دنیا کی واحد سیل نسل ہے جو مکمل طور پر میٹھے پانی میں رہتی ہے، اور محققین کا خیال ہے کہ اس کے آباؤ اجداد بہت پہلے اس قدیم جھیل تک پہنچے تھے، شاید دریاؤں کے ذریعے یا اس گرم دور میں جب آبی راستے اس علاقے کو سمندر سے جوڑتے تھے۔ جھیل کی تنہائی نے پھر انہیں ایسی نسل میں ڈھال دیا جو زمین پر کہیں اور نہیں ملتی، اور یہ انہیں قدرت کے عجیب ترین بچ جانے والوں میں سے ایک بناتی ہے۔
  • साइबेरिया के बीच में स्थित बैकाल झील में लगभग 1,00,000 सील रहती हैं, जो निकटतम समुद्र से करीब 2,000 मील दूर है — यह एक पहेली है जिस पर वैज्ञानिक पीढ़ियों से बहस कर रहे हैं। बैकाल सील दुनिया की इकलौती सील प्रजाति है जो पूरी तरह मीठे पानी में रहती है, और शोधकर्ताओं का मानना है कि इसके पूर्वज बहुत पहले इस प्राचीन झील तक पहुँचे थे, शायद नदियों के ज़रिए या उस गर्म युग में जब जलमार्ग इस क्षेत्र को समुद्र से जोड़ते थे। झील के अलगाव ने फिर उन्हें ऐसी प्रजाति में ढाल दिया जो धरती पर और कहीं नहीं मिलती, और यही उन्हें प्रकृति के सबसे अजीब बचे हुओं में से एक बनाता है।
