- It plays a significant ecological role as part of the Okavango > Chobe > Makgadikgadi migration corridor.
Sources provided
[edit]- Peer-reviewed research from Wageningen University & Research on wildlife corridors (link).
- Geographic data from the US National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (link).
- Independent travel overviews from Extraordinary Journeys and Africa Dynamics, both used for factual geographic and ecological detail.
- NGO reporting from Space for Giants on human–wildlife coexistence in Mababe.
Neutrality

Further improvements possible
[edit]- Additional peer-reviewed geology and hydrology sources.
