"The world’s biggest permafrost crater in Russia known as “Batagaika” is
melting as the planet is gradually warming. Batagaika crater is a
one-kilometre-long chunk of sunken land Russia's Far East region. The drone
footage reveals the details of the depression in the region. The phenomenon
began in the 1960s due to deforestation. After the forest surrounding the
landform was cleared, the permafrost underground began to melt, causing the
land to sink. Find out more about it here."
