Description
We saw many of these beautiful animals on a guided jeep ride we took through the Camargue. I took a bunch of photos of them, but was only satisfied with this photo & one other, which I'll post tomorrow.
From Wikipedia:
"The Camargue horse is an ancient breed of horse indigenous to the Camargue area in southern France. For centuries, possibly thousands of years, these small horses have lived wild in the harsh environment of the Camargue marshes and wetlands of the Rhone delta. There they developed the stamina, hardiness and agility for which they are known today. The Camargue horse is the traditional mount of the gardians, the Camargue "cowboys" who herd the black Camargue bulls used in bullfighting in southern France. Camargue horses galloping through water is a popular and romantic image of the region."
