Here's a good crossword puzzle word for you - ENDORHEIC. Give up?
It's the name for a watershed from which there is no outflow of water. The Caspian Sea, Dead Sea, Great Salt Lake, and Crater Lake are all endorheic watersheds. So is the Okavango Delta in Botswana where we now are.
It's the world's largest inland delta, flowing into the Kalahari Desert. The number of different types of wildlife is incredible - birds (of all kinds, shapes, and sizes), antelopes, hippos, crocodiles, elephants, buffalo, giraffe, etc.
