I am so glad that the French put the caves off limits to tourists, because otherwise, the paintings would no longer exist. Tourists can really screw up everything.

[@thatguy8005]

I went before they were closed off

[@casuallystalled]

sometimes it's something tourists can controll, which is that our breaths have moisture and humidity. at that point, it was simply a lot of people breathing in the confined space that caused the deteroration

[@AlwinBlias-qj7ih]

Maya Bay is now reopened, but no boat access or swimming allowed at the beach. You'd need to get to Loh Sama Bay to get on the pier and cross the island to Maya Beach where you can walk around, take pictures and enjoy the scenery only. You can't get in the water more than knee deep or the park ranger will warn you or take further action if you do not comply.

[@iygikygii1999]

[@BillGreenAZ]

I'm glad they included Snake Island. I had heard about the high concentration of snakes on the island and thought it wasn't possible to have such a high concentration. To have that many snakes they would have a food source to survive. Enter the the birds they mention. I've read where this island is in a flight pattern of some sort that causes the birds to rest on the island. Maybe it's far from other islands. Either way, the snakes have plenty to eat from the birds who rest there.

[@debbiesims138]

I've read about Snake Island. Was thinking it would be included.

[@franl155]

I'd heard of some of these but by no means all, so thank you. It's good to know that governments are thinking of the future - or, in the case of Lascaux, the past - and taking steps to preserve things for future generations. Increasing tourism is a blessing until it becomes a curse, people destroying the very thing that people go there to see. There's a vid about places that have been ruined by tourists. Mr Ballen did a video on Snake Island - several people have died from snakebite, including a lighthouse keeper and his family. But apparently people still go there, trying to capture the snakes to sell - a lot of them never come back. I don't know who'd want to own so deadly a snake, but apparently there's a market; let's just hope that they keep the snakes very securely enclosed; heaven forbid that any escaped into a new environment and start breeding. He also did one on North Sentinel Island, and what happened to that missionary

There's a reason that the cave is off limits it's because for a long time people could come and visit it and the more people that came in the more damage it was to the paintings just from sheer breath and body not kidding you in fact that's the way it is for a lot of ancient places that are caverns they don't allow people anymore into a lot of these places because of the damage that human beings do just by breathing.

On the mainland the tallest is Mount Kosciuszko in New South Wales which is 2,228m. Fact checking is not really up to scratch on this video as interesting as it was.

I'm surprised Whakaari/White Island, North Island New Zealand is not on the list: A cone volcano that's been around the last 150,000 years. New Zealand's most active volcano erupts frequently with steam 200° Celsius (nearly 400° Fahrenheit). It erupted the 9th of December 2019 when 48 tourists and tour guides were there; some of whom were at the crater edge when the eruption occurred. Most were injured but 22 people died including 2 whose bodies were never found. The volcano island has been closed to everyone since then except for the authorities who brielfy returned for the bodies that didn't die in hospital.
