Wow! Bleeding Glaciers! (Stunning Videos)

(N.Morgan) I have never heard of the Bleeding Glaciers in Antarctica! It looks rather scary, yet you can’t stop looking, because it is truly a wonder to behold. Glaciers are pretty awesome, hence several people’s being quite concerned about how climate change and global warming are affecting them.  From where I stand, the Taylor Glacier in Antarctica can and should be labeled as one of Mother Nature’s miracles, all thanks to its seeming to bleed.

– Glacier in Antarctica appears to be bleeding

As the picture above shows, a bright red waterfall is indeed making its way out of the glacier and into the water below. According to Inhabitat, it was roughly two million years ago that a body of water somehow got trapped under the Taylor Glacier. As the time passed, microbes living in this water managed to thrive, mostly because of their being exposed to high concentrations of salt and iron. Specialists explain that the iron present in this water is what gives Blood Falls, as this waterfall is named, its unique color. Specialists first became aware of the existence of the Taylor Glacier in the McMurdo Dry Valley back in 1911, the same source informs us.
