 | | Troglobites are animals that live exclusively in caves; they are especially interesting because of their unique morphological, physiological, behavioral, and life-history adaptations. | | | Sometimes, humans can't easily see the value of these subterranean systems, especially when their own interests conflict with the health of cave communities. | | | Scientists can estimate the level and types of threats that this growth brings to the biological integrity of the region, but it's much more difficult to develop protected areas, educational programs, and new regulatory mechanisms within the existing political, social, and geographic framework. |

| | Plato: The Allegory of the Cave |
| | In "The Republic," Plato sums up his views in an image of ignorant humanity, trapped in the depths and not even aware of its own limited perspective. | | | The essential point is that the prisoners in the cave are not seeing reality, but only a shadowy representation of it. | | | Such a person is then the best equipped to govern in society, having a knowledge of what is ultimately most worthwhile in life and not just a knowledge of techniques; but that person will frequently be misunderstood by those ordinary folks back in the cave who haven't shared in the intellectual insight. |
