Blind Cave Fish at Mammoth Cave

I found these two postcards recently.  The top one, which looks spectacular, is probably from the 40s.

On the back of the bottom postcard, it says-

The pearly-white eyeless cave fish, Typhlichthys Osborni, on view in the natural cave pools, is spawned, lives and dies without ever seeing daylight.  It is native only to Hidden River and its tributaries.
