The
Petite Camargue
is delimited to the west by the Etang de l'Or and to
the east by the Petit Rhône, nowadays dammed up. The Petit Rhône is the arm of the Rhône that flows more to the west of the Camargue and
symbolizes the border
between the Petite Camargue and the Camargue, big sister of the renowned.
This environment, called "humid zone" by the naturalists
swarms with an exceptionally rich and varied life.
If
certain people have avoided these swamp lands, others have mobilized to save the rare areas left of this natural paradise.
These "resistants" are often either scientists or rational cultivators of this rich environment. |
