setting out for this small island from the mainland. this is because gale force winds blow here throughout the rest of the day. dr vladimir cuz mean a biologist is going to the deserted island of whitney the lakes most mysterious feature. it is couched in incredible legends and is the custodian of many secrets when and how it became home to a herd of horses is unclear. because of its population of noble beast has since been called a mustang island today it is part of europe's only nature reserve in the statue. go to cannes mean hopes to be able to get close to the mustangs to see how these federal descendants of domesticated horses live in the wild. to carry our good luck and godspeed if you find us horses thank you for the ride.

yesterday. when i find them i'll be sure to let you know ok. i for now. managed below is one of europe's longest likes but a high concentration of solve it stretches all the way from the russian plane to the caucasus mountains as it runs through the cooma manage depression a natural border between europe and asia. there are no fresh water reservoirs rivers all springs on board ya and because of the salinity of the soil. consequently there are no trees or shrubs there either. the island is overgrown with low grass. some of time here is marked by scorching heat droughts and strong winds. the horses have

a hard time surviving in such conditions because main confirms. this here is the skull of an adult horse it belonged to a female. it died from natural causes. no trace of hooves is found in the sand the renault trails leading to the hole spawns the soul to make the lakes water under. the horses can only survive on the islands in the land where rain accumulates in small depressions in the earth though because maine soon finds a narrow trail in the grass. this is a horse trail and similar trails take horses to a watering place that said even tulips grew in such trails the horses tread on

them but they don't trample them now down. some one hundred fifty species of kulit are found in the wild this flower with a short stammen brightcove about gave birth to the first cultivated varieties of chillax this is the bald schrenker. one see is the islands of open spaces and low hills of the rest of nature reserve flare up in a riot of color. people often alice cooper going to chew it's not so sure that's because the bulk of acutely placed on the ground as a depth of about seventy centimeters or even a plow want to remove it it's the no threat at all. well. the wild kulit has always been a native plant of russia's steps in the past it was a symbol of vitality and fertility unlike the bulbs we may buy for our gardens these two live starts life

a small seeds years will pass before the bugs emerge above ground all human stakes seventy years to come up battle at the first street here they look like the battles of the stealing i think they'll bloom until they're at least six years of age. but surely it is one of the few flowering plants that are comfortable and open arid areas and geological terms the so-called managed depression is an almost ideal playing with small lakes two to three metres deep fish and weeds are not found in them because it's too salty. colonies of microscopic crayfish called growing shrimps then for water it's reddish hue. they are common and sold more. and the most likely to be only in evidence. the horse trail involved the island take stock

as main to what is now a small dried out lake. what makes the rust off preserved different is that this island is surrounded by a salt lake it's called man it's a good deal this is one of the lakes base the water is very salty the horses don't drink such water. as a seasoned explorer trails are not his only guide. i don't think of horses smell could be mistaken for anything else i'm with you i would say that it is very distinctive though. they must be somewhere here nearby. and in. the free roaming mustangs on the island are in total isolation locals have another

theory as to how the horses came to lake managed to be loath in the old days robbers stole horses in neighboring villages and had them that to this day the horse is a still mistrustful of people. the island is now closed to tourists and only research is can visit get few have been able to approach the stallions let alone get inside the hood. here they are these are the horses we have spent ages looking for there are eight young cool it's these free roaming horses are called mustangs.

i can see the horses grouping together ready to head off. at dawn tomorrow they will be much camera and then we will be able to take a look at life going side by hertz. the. look they're off into the sunset. from time immemorial pulses help schuman survive in these a steer regions nomads regarded this open space in europe south as a highway linking europe and asia. over the ages many ethnic groups inhabited these

parts including scythians pigeon eggs castles tattles and mongols in the old days the horse was a status symbol only warriors and the elite could afford to keep such mounts. the camel was the most common domesticated animal among ordinary folk. carols were used in every way possible over yours the monastery loads i've been that way used for meat and wool. though he is the last. ofa staff of the rostov reserve and researchers from the biodiversity conservation center of come up with a project to keep what were once native animals and the staff of this small herd of camels graze during the day and return to an open pen for the night the camels like

it here and are only too happy to give up the open wild in exchange for food and water. they have easily adapted to living in the stack one of the signs of healthy camels is upright rather than crumpled and drooping humps camels rapidly multiplied in this small herd. on your they have a hierarchy of. camels a base strong nails yet some of the males are very aggressive they have to be removed from the herd to ensure the comfort of others this is especially important at a time when there are many young camels around we protect them from aggressive males but other was old and young alike co-exist peacefully. mean has devoted his life to studying horses so much slow that his friends and colleagues gave him the nickname old mustang. for quite some time and the mayor has

conducted research on his own this is because while horses dislike the presence of many people on the island. don't think has maine lives a hermit's life all he needs in the step is water and packed meals he stays in a dilapidated cannon for the night the island's only structure. we constantly observe the mustang's way of life we're looking for opportunities to create isolated territories for them so they can feel themselves at home without being bothered by humans.

the buds of wild chips in the last of reserve open with the first rays of the sun to shrink achieve lib loons for only a few days this brief period is known in the reserve as red carpet time. in the morning vonnie island surrounded by fog. to cast me knows for sure the bird is nearby. in the morning they are most likely to be either in a depressions or at the water hole this behavior is characteristic of all animals roaming around to step. in the morning they feed on moist grass at this time the plants are rich in moisture and there is also a lot of juice here this meets their water requirements.

over the years on the island the hoods behavior has become quite varied. typical of old free roaming animals it's up to the alpha male to decide where the herd goes at any particular moment. but even without a leader the horses follow their natural instinct to flock together as they move around the island. as soon as a small group of horses begins moving the others gradually join in. for most of the year the mustangs live in a type of harini there are three to four mezz with cults in each of them each karima has a leader king knows which mazza his mates and does his best to protect them against

terrorism and stallions may kick up a fight even if one of them unintentionally trespasses on the territory of another family. the mustangs on the island have no enemies wolves can't get here because it's too dangerous for them to swim even feathered predators never nest here they prefer other islands. migrating birds fly over lake managed to be low on one of the longest flight paths in eurasia. the lake is now a protected area families sons of mortal fowl nest on the lakes small islands

preparation the island is home to the largest colony. a rigid hierarchy is typical here just as it is of the mustangs that caspian gulls dominate the island. as these great goods are omnivorous they plants a nice this helps them survive in any conditions of fielitz they can drive even humans away was a right there are no fish it will therefore they need to fatalism it's in the field all pick up bread and meat from cabbage cancer but that's why the girl has become such a common bird at lakemont is good deal another lee but throughout the south. could go a colony is the largest seagulls nest in the grass or on the shore. of

the birds never fly over this part of the island even black headed gulls stick together and steer clear of the noisy flock of preparation ai that. whenever they see caspian gulls approaching they immediately set nests. but it's the spring bills which stand out here. provision the island forms the more than most of them have attacked. the goods have peculiar looking beaks. they prefer to hunt for crayfish close to the shore.

because they cross stations where. there is an abundance of. feel safe on the island they build their nests away from ago might be described as bird settlements. preservation instinct tells the to build their nests high above ground to protect their young from a sudden flood or. small predators get to the island when parts of the lake dry up in the hate when this happens the seagulls come to the rescue. when one comes around hundreds of girls attack and kill it. on one occasion. up here hundreds of down into the water. and the birds finish it off right

there in. the mating season. has come to an end a colony of lay their eggs and awaiting for the young to hatch. explore and take. i don't because main walks slowly and quietly and poses on the trial the horses can hear the slightest noise they have the ability to turn that his backwards. and. these

here are two mayors. and two colt and. that stallion is running out of them and wants to take them to an isolated place where they can feed and pace but. it's not quite clear when the first horse is settled on the island the locals were aware of the wild herd back in the early twentieth century and local stories passed through the ages suggested robbers in times gone by used to steal stallions and mez from nearby villages and hide them on the island they believe that those horses of the ancestors of the modern day mustangs. scientists have found some evidence in support of this theory the wild horses avoid any island appear to have all the distinctive features and characteristics of the russian don't breed which was bred in the dawn region one hundred years ago in one nine hundred ninety five when it

became part of the roster of nature reserve today the free roaming herd is under protection but there was a time when the horses were under threat from invading poachers. when you began your poachers would come when the horses were unprotected and the time one of the stallions called baron often stood watch on high ground to get a good feel of the island. as soon as he sensed danger he learned to hurt. the horses saw barrin as their leader. even though he had a family of his own of with all the other horses followed his commands because they knew that baron had saved them from approaching poachers many times before.

doctor because maine has learned much about the mustangs after spending several days with them the main leader is no longer in the herd it now consists of eight hundred families all on equal terms it includes three hundred twenty three adult horses and eighteen cults these are critical figures for their survival if their population grows the mustangs may run out of food and he got there with your big. mustangs absolutely love cereal crops they can't live without them would. as long as there aren't too many horses here at any one time there's more than enough food to go around what.

fresh water is a constant issue for the mustangs the morning jus is not enough to sustain them at noon the herd relaxes under the heat of the some towards sunset the mustang's head to the drinking place one nearest them has dried up but there is still some cool water at the bottom. will will. will will this is the best place for them to rest for the hood sets out on a long journey to the other end of the island where there is still rain water in small pools. real life it is great that nature created this island away from the mainland

and. the horses can lead a happy life. thousands of years ago he says their predecessors were here. this is a getaway a secret place for them you have the islands of mustang still afraid you will stumble.
