World’s Largest Inland Delta in Danger

The Okavango Delta in Botswana covering an area of over 15,000 square kilometers, making it the largest inland delta in the world and once a part of ancient Lake Makgadikgadi, that mostly dried up by the early Holocene may not be around for the next generations to come.

The Okavango Delta is home to a permanent and seasonal wide variety of wildlife that makes the place even more valuable than tourism.

Here’s where wildlife flourish in the likes of the African Bush Elephant, African Buffalo, Hippopotamus, Lechwe, Topi, Blue Wildebeest, Giraffe, Nile crocodile, Lion, Cheetah, Leopard, Brown Hyena, Spotted Hyena, Greater Kudu, Sable Antelope, Black Rhinoceros, White Rhinoceros, Plains Zebra, Warthog and Chacma Baboon. The endangered African Wild Dog still survives within the Okavango Delta, exhibiting one of the richest pack densities in Africa.

Botswana...
The Okavango is a unique ecosystem of papyrus-lined waterways, knee-deep floodplains, water-lily lagoons, shady forest glades and rich savannah grasslands. All this fecundity lies in the middle of the largest continuous stretch of sand in the world - the Kalahari Desert Basin. Seen from space as an emerald swirl surrounded by a parched landscape, the Okavango Delta is an incredible source of life in a country that is 80% arid.

Rather than a delta, it is in fact an alluvial fan of sediment and debris, which filled a trough formed by the sinking of the earth's crust, between a series of parallel faults across the Okavango River....

It is a sanctuary to 400 species of birds, including African Fish Eagle, Crested Crane, Lilac-breasted Roller, Hammerkop, Ostrich, and Sacred Ibis.

An estimated majority of 200,000 wildlife including buffalos and elephants total of about 30,000 leave with the summer rains to find renewed fields of grass and trees then make their way back as winter approaches. 

Threatened by extreme global climate change are five ethnic groups, each with its own identity and language are the Hambukushu, Dceriku, Wayeyi, Bugakhwe, and ||anikhwe.

The Hambukushu, Dceriku, and Wayeyi are all Bantus who have traditionally engaged in mixed economies of millet/sorghum agriculture; fishing, hunting, and the collection of wild plant foods; and pastoralism.

The Bugakhwe and ||anikwhe are Bushmen who have traditionally practiced fishing, hunting, and the collection of wild plant foods utilizing both forest and riverine resources.

An Oasis of Wildlife, Above and Below

The Okavango Delta is trapped in the parched Kalahari Desert with no permanent outlet to the sea, and is a magnet for the wildlife that depends on the delta and its seasonal flooding. Each year, 11 cubic kilometres of water reaches the delta, water that is unusually pure, thanks to the absence of agriculture or industry along the adjoining rivers.

Precipitation is expected to decrease because of climate change, while the temperature is projected to rise. This will cause the deltas enormous peat bogs to dry out, with a risk that the peat will catch fire, releasing massive amounts of greenhouse gases.
