Llancanelo Lake, in the south of Mendoza Province, Argentina, has almost completely dried up since the mid-1980s. At its peak, it covered an area of 250 square miles (650 square km) and sustained a habitat of about 150,000 aquatic birds. Its near disappearance has been caused by a lack of inflow from the Malargüe River and a loss of water through evapotranspiration and runoff.Click the image below to watch a Timelapse video on Instagram.
