Did you know? In our region, Occitania, you can come and see the African reserve of Sigean, located near BĂ©ziers and Narbonne which contains more than 3500 animals. The visit is a bit like a safari and the 300 hectare reserve allows you to discover 160 species by car or on foot.  I am not a fan of zoos, but this one lets the animals in “semi-liberty” and is less sad than the others. – Get this reading comprehension in French when you become a Patreon member 🙂
