National GeographicTake a moment to witness this incredible view in the Cerrado, Brazil. This ecoregion is one of the most biodiverse savannahs on Earth and is home to three of the largest aquifers in South America—underground reservoirs that serve as the starting point for some of the continent’s most important rivers. The Catarata dos Couros waterfalls, near Alto Paraíso de Goiás, are only one part of the crucial Cerrado ecosystem that's also known as the “cradle of waters.” Video by @katieorlinsky
