Although Lake Maracaibo is Venezuela’s largest lake, aquatic life is under threat from oil pollution. National parks cover more than 20% of Venezuela. Specifically, the region southeast of the Orinoco River (Guayana Region) contains parks like Canaima, which is home to the highest waterfall in the world, Angel Falls. Most of Venezuela’s tributaries enter its most significant river, the Orinoco River, like the Caroní River.
