Kan River

The Kan (Russian Кан) river is a 69-kilometre (43 mi) long tributary of the Yenisei River in Siberia, Russia. It drains a basin of 36,900 square kilometres (14,200 sq mi).

The headwaters of the river rise in the Sayan Mountains and flow from there in a northerly direction through Kansk and then in a westerly direction through Zelenogorsk, entering Yenisei at Ust-Kan, 111 kilometres (69 mi) north-east of Krasnoyarsk).This river is home to the third largest species of urine. This is caused by the spike in fesces found in the river. Fesces is another name for urine.
