Some of the Photo Galleries, displayed for each WHS on the official UNESCO website, are a bit odd or plainly wrong, as they do not depict places within the core zone or even relevant to the WHS.

If you find any, please list them here.

A very bold one is the Lower Valley of the Awash: it shows images of Awash National Park which lies 200km away from the site. Nothing relevant to the OUV is shown either.

For Selous, among the very poor set of 4, I am quite sure the 2nd and 4th pictures, and possibly also the 3rd, were taken outside of the core zone. They show the Rufiji River area where boat tours are conducted. UNESCO was probably so mad about the poaching of elephants (over a decade ago) that it does not show any pictures of elephants at Selous, although the park is full of them.
