Description

A man wearing a yellow and black wetsuit writes in a notebook while sitting on the ground of a wet cave.

Some fossil specimens are found in areas that are only accessible by traveling through the underground river inside Mammoth Cave. Researchers often wear wetsuits to protect themselves from the constant 54-degree temperature of the cave.
