The origination of the Lualaba River is on the Katanga Plateau, at an elevation of 1,400 metres (4,600ft) above sea level. Its total course flows northward to end near Kisangani, where the name Congo River officially begins.
From the Katanga Plateau it drops, with waterfalls and rapids marking the descent, to the Manika Plateau. As it descends through the upper Kamalondo Trough (Upemba Depression), 457 metres (1,499ft) in 72 kilometres (45mi), near Nzilo Falls it is dammed for hydroelectric power at Nzilo Dam.
The Congo River is a long, arcing river in West-Central Africa, featuring a rainforest and providing food and transport for 75 million people. Read more about this diverse region: https://www.livescience.com/congo-river.html

When your name is Goliath, you'd better be one humongous, ferocious creature, and the Goliath tigerfish (Hydrocynus goliath) definitely lives up to its moniker. A native of the Congo River basin, the Lualaba River, Lake Upemba and Lake Tanganyika in Africa, it's the largest member of the tigerfish clan, a genus of fierce predators with protruding, daggerlike teeth. The biggest one on record was nearly 5 feet long and weighed 154 pounds, the equivalent of a super-welterweight prizefighter. And it outclasses other African game fish in speed and power.
Locals say it's the only fish that doesn't fear the crocodile and that it actually eats smaller ones. It's also been known to attack huma...

Locals say it's the only fish that doesn't fear the crocodile and that it actually eats smaller ones. It's also been known to attack humans in rare instances. It's so lightning quick and forceful that not only will it snap an angler's line, but it will sometimes make off with his or her tackle. No wonder one fishing safari promoter requires clients read a cautionary treatise on the Goliath before agreeing to a fishing trip.
