The Letaba River is a tributary to the Olifants River, so can hardly be bigger -O-

To measure the size inside the Park is probably an impossible task. Anyway, they are both terribly polluted, like all SA rivers. It must be very bad for the animals, or do they get accustomed to all the poison? I doubt it -O-

Q: What was the greatest damage inflicted in the Olifants River area of Kruger during the 2000 floods?

This is damage that is impossible to repair. It is, interestingly, detrimental to the Pels' fishing owl population... O-/

The riverbanks used to be populated by huge Sycamore figs and Natal Mahogany. Majority of these old trees have been washed away. Big loss of ideal roosting and nesting habitat for Pel's 0:

Quite correct, and those trees can take hundreds of years to grow. :-(
