In Slovenia, a special event is underway. Rare olm salamanders, also known as "the human fish" and "baby dragons," are hatching in Postojna Cave.
So far, three have hatched in the cave's special aquarium, the latest on June 4.

Fire-breathing or not, the olm salamander is a species unlike any other. Here's what sets them apart.
