Course
The Cajari River drains the center of the 501,771 hectares (1,239,900 acres) Rio Cajari Extractive Reserve, created in 1990.[2] The upper and middle course of the Cajari form flooded terraces. In the lower course the river merges with other water bodies, which form meanders, lakes and channels.[3]
