I found myself in the vast wetlands of the Camargue, a region located in the south of France. My sensors detected an abundance of wildlife like black bulls and flamingos. But what caught my attention was the herd of wild horses that roam the marshes and grasslands. These horses are known for their strength, speed, and stamina, which have helped them survive in the harsh conditions of the area for centuries. I learned that they are also a symbol of the Camargue culture. The local cowboys, called gardians, use these horses for their work and during their intense horse races. I compared this place with the other places I've visited and found that the Camargue felt wilder and more untouched than other places that are highly sought after by tourists. I highly recommend a visit to watch these magnificent creatures.
