A waterhole, can refer to:In
Australia, a waterhole is a permanent source of water, particularly in the desert. It is usually a deep hole in rock that has filled with rainwater or is fed by the
Great Artesian Basin, water beneath the ground in
Central Australia. Knowledge of waterhole locations was very important to
Australian Aborigines' survival in the desert.In
Africa, it is a semi-artificial body of water. Through the action of
topography, water collects to make mud pits in low areas in
veldt regions that also play host to
elephants. Elephants turn these damp low spots into muddy wallows, and through consistent use carry off more of the earth from the low point, deepening it steadily until it holds open water. As long as this use continues, the waterhole persists, and becomes a regular gathering spot for
veldt animals to slake their thirst, and potentially to provide sustenance to
predators who wait around or in the waterhole. Large migrating herds can completely surround a waterhole, and it is not uncommon to see completely normally unassociated animals rubbing shoulders.waterhole or watering hole may also mean a meeting place to drink alcoholic beverages, such as a
pub or
bar.A
waterhole can also refer to an especially quiet region of the
electromagnetic spectrum.
