Through tributaries such as the Lapalala, it drains the Waterburg Biosphere. It is only navigable below the Olifants, its largest tributary, and its biggest dam is at Guija, 62 miles from its mouth at Xai-Xai, which is blocked by a sand bar at low tide. One of its tributaries, the Shoshe, forms a tiny part of the border between Botswana and Zimbabwe before joining this river, which, at its source, is called the Krokodil. Emptying into the Indian Ocean in Mozambique, this is, for ten points, what Southern African river?
