Socotra - the Alien Island | Did You Know | ISH News

Some 250 km away from Somalia and 340 km from Yemen situated in the Indian Ocean there is an island called ‘Socotra’.
This island reminds of an alien planet in a science fiction film.
This island is so isolated from the world that the plant species found here are not found anywhere else.
One such weird-looking plant is this - looks like a UFO is stuck on a tree trunk!
It's called a rare dragon’s blood tree. Also, species of cucumber trees and pomegranate plants grow here that are not found anywhere else.
Apart from plants 90% of reptile species and 95% of its land snail species that are found on the island aren’t found anywhere else in the world.
The simple reason for this is that this island is one of the most isolated places.
About 40K people of ‘Bedouin’ culture live here.
They survive mainly by herding and fishing.
The language spoken on this island is an unwritten ‘Socotri’ language.
It isn’t written, only spoken by people.
This island is a part of Yemen.
