have lived around Victoria Falls for at least 2 million years. Two national parks, Mosi-oa-Tunya
National Park and Victoria Falls National Park, protect the area. Both extend into the rain forest
surrounding the falls, providing refuge for elephants, zebra, antelope, giraffe, rhinoceros, water buffalo
and gazelle. Victoria Falls drops from a plateau, measuring 262 feet high on the Falls’ western edge and
stretching to 360 feet on the eastern edge. Two islands – Livingstone Island and Boaruka Island – cleave the
falls at the base and separate it into individual streams. Victoria Falls lies along the Zambezi River, straddling
the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe.
