Any animal that comes in contact with the water of this lake does not turn into stone immediately as many reports have claimed. Evaporite islands which are formed seasonally are the most preferred places of these birds. The reason flamingos choose this lake as their breeding place is because the harsh climate would keep away predators.
The bedrock surrounding this lake was formed in the Pleistocene period and is composed of trachyte lava. For this reason, the animals in the lake look as if they have been dropped in a bucket of cement, which is because of the ashy runoff along with the rainwater accumulating in the lake. This is because other volcanoes in this planet spew silicates unlike this volcano which give out natrocarbonatite.
Just south of Lake Natron, a volcano million years old, Ol Doinyo Lengai, is located which is known for its unique existence. These pour out in lava flows and blast into the air 10 miles high to become ash clouds. The salt in this lake is not the widely extracted salt from the seawater but magmatic limestone, that has been forged deep in the Earth.
