Ice Tsunami On The Yenisei River

They live in shallow freshwater lakes and ponds in Africa. If their reservoir suddenly dries up, they can live without water for many months by simply burrowing into the ground.

With the onset of the dry season, the protopter begins to prepare for hibernation. During this period, he digs a nest for himself, where he will subsequently spend 6-9 months or even more, until water appears again. This fish digs its hole with its mouth, throwing out crushed soil through the gill slits. When the "bedroom" is ready, the protopter climbs into it and stays there until the water subsides.
