Endangered 'Water Dragons' Suddenly Appear in the Swimming Pond of Daphné (34) and Thomas (35): “We Go Back Every Evening to Take a Look, Like Amazed Little Children”

Barely 20 kilometres away, experts are fishing for the first time for ‘eDNA’ to track down the endangered creature. “This allows us to dig extra pools for this symbolic species in a more targeted manner.”
