This was my first contact with the Iraizinho River. The "zinho" ending of the word means "little". There is a larger river called Iraí. The Iraí-little will go to the Iraí proper. As far as I am concerned the Iraizinho is the "true" source of the Iguassu. I mean, the Iraizinho basin. But just like what is happening with rivers everywhere, the Iraizinho here is already polluted by subsistence agriculture, agricultural poisons, garbage and human and animal wastes.
