Murrumbidgee River Jigsaw Puzzle
This jigsaw salutes the Murrumbidgee River that runs through the
state of NSW in Australia. The photograph used to make the jigsaw
puzzle was taken in the Yanco
- Leeton area.
Did
you know that the Murrumbidgee River is one of the major rivers of Australia.
The river meanders around 1,600 kms from the alpine region near Kiandra
through Canberra, Gundagai, Wagga Wagga and the western plains of NSW
until joining the Murray River and Lachlan Rivers.
The river has retained it's name from the Aboriginals, Murrumbidgee thought
to mean "big water". It is the only major river that was not
renamed after an explorer or politician.
Today the waters of the Murrumbidgee are controlled and used for irrigation
and there are some that are very worried for the health of the river.
It has been noted that bird life has decreased dramatically in the lower
regions, thought to be due to the lack of natural flooding. Fishing is
still good on the river and produces Murray
Cod, Yellowbelly and other native species, although the noxious European
Carp is a big problem.
