In the valley of Dealul Tepelusului a beautiful and huge fox is dead in the middle of the field. There are many foxes in the Oltenia area, especially near villages, but this is a beautiful one. I could not pass over the river at this point, so I have only this image of it.

This is a little pig who feels the danger and tries to hide under an old tree, on the left bank of the Danube river, at Desa village...

Many people believe that if they are hidden like a little pig, the danger will pass away from them...

Although this photo shows deer a long way away, it is good to see them in the forest again.

Photo taken on the border of Arginesti Forest, near the Motru River, not far from the village of Gura Motrului, about two or three kilometres north of the village of Bilta.

This beautiful white Cal, or horse, on top of a hill, is in the valley of the fossils. Many of them are used for pulling ploughs and so on, but it is very rare to ride them.
