Waitomo Glowworm Caves - The Gem Of New Zealand

 Waitomo Glowworm Caves - The Gem Of New Zealand

Author : Arni Amusa

We all love to travel. You must have traveled to numerous places but nothing can be compared to the beauty spot of New Zealand -
The Waitomo Glowworm Caves.
This awe-inspiring cave induces thousands of tourist every year .
Tourists can visit by boat and enjoy a fantastic light show as they cruise through.
This glowworm cave is located in the depths of the North Island Hills in New Zealand.
The walls of this limestone cave are lined with an array of luminescent glowworms.
This specific species of the glowworms that lives in the cave is absent anywhere else in the world.
This species of worms is named as Arachnocampa luminosa.
Glow worms are the larvae (immature stage) of a small fly (Arachnocampa luminosa).
The larvae stage is the only stage in their life cycle that can glow. The colors may include red, yellow, orange, or even green!
The adults are delicate flies. When the glow worm turns into an adult their lifespan becomes shorter.
Glowworms are miniature sized (about the size of a matchstick).
These insect prey on even smaller insects such as mayflies, midges and moths.
To capture their food the glowworms build a network of silk threads that hang vertically from their habitat that are covered in a sticky mucus.
Glowworm fact: Adult glowworm flies never get caught in these sticky webs because they aren’t attracted to the light, plus they are strong enough to pull away from the threads .That's all what you needed to know about the Waitomo Glowworm Caves and its endangered but unique glow worm!
Hope you guys enjoyed my blog!

A SWEET DREAM Author : SHRIYANS SACHITH

  A SWEET DREAM Author : SHRIYANS SACHITH Aquaman was the movie playing when I guess I shut my eyes on a lazy sunday afternoon after a heavy meal. The mermaid was beautiful as it looked at me with its blue eyes. She had long blonde hair and a smile that made me blush. I was in deep sea surrounded by various aquatic animals, lush topographand clear water. She held out her hand and said I should take it if I wanted a tour of the underwater world. I grabbed at her hand and almost fumbled with it. She laughed at my awkwardness and I smiled back with a foolish look. 'Come' she said' and led me into an astonishing world. The air bubbles floated around me as I breathed out deep. As we sped along, I noticed various fishes of all shapes and sizes. Each of them gawked at me with bewilderment while I waved at them. The ocean-bed was laced with shells, oysters, precious stones that glittered and pebbles embedded in the white sand. Everything seemed so fresh and un-polluted and pristine
