GeographyThe lake is located near Raura mountain range[2] and has a surface elevation of 3,845 m and has an eastern-western orientation.[1] It has {{convert|7|km|mi|0}} of length, {{convert|1.5|km|mi|0}} of width and an average depth of 75 m.[2] The lake is part of the basin of the Lauricocha River, A Jesuit priest named Samuel Fritz drew a map in 1707 which showed the Marañón River as the main stream of the Amazon River. He identified Lake Lauricocha as the source of the Amazon.[5] Several additional places have since been proposed as sources of the Amazon. EcologyCertain parts on the lake shores are covered with reeds.[2] The predominant species in the lake is the introduced trout.[2] Among the fauna present around the lake are birds like ducks, tinamous and hawks; and mammals like tarucas, vizcachas, foxes and skunks.[2] References1. ^1 {{Cite book|title=Peru 1:100 000, Yanahuanca (21-j)|last=|first=|publisher=IGN (Instituto Geográfico Nacional - Perú)|year=|isbn=|location=|pages=|via=}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Lake Lauricocha}}2. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{Cite web|url=http://ficha.sigmincetur.mincetur.gob.pe/index.aspx?cod_Ficha=22|title=Laguna de Lauricocha|last=|first=|date=|website=Inventario Turistico del Perú|publisher=MINCETUR|language=Spanish|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=2016-07-28}} 3. ^Diccionario Quechua - Español - Quechua, Academía Mayor de la Lengua Quechua, Gobierno Regional Cusco, Cusco 2005: Lawri - s.
