One instance of a stream capture is the capture of the Rio Grande which before capture flowed into a closed basin , Lake Cabeza de Baca, but after capture flowed into the Gulf of Mexico.
A stream capturing currently developing in Germany is the Donauversickerung, where a big portion of the upper parts of the Danube river sink into the limestone bedrock, and resurface in the Aachtopf spring, a tributary to the Rhine river.
