    Seems fake, but maybe not. I know that small single cell (or small number of cell) animals can do it. But I did not think it could happen with larger animals.

      Nope. It’s common in South America where you have rivers that suddenly dry up, then reappear the next rainy season. Even normal catfish can survive amazing amounts of time outside of the water.

          @Mik Wow! That is crazy. Imagine the first guy to decide to swim in an underground tunnel, not knowing when/if it would open up

                I'd imagine it was at a time when the seas were lower and the entrance was open.

                                Good quote.

                                —violinist Pablo De Sarasate

                                        I wonder to what extent that was due to differences in average temperatures.

                                        Not just that the green areas grow more olives, but the butter lasts longer in Stockholm than in Madrid.
