This is sold in particular in Brittany, Normandy and the Thau basin in S\u00e8te.<\/p><p>I understood then that Fred's life is not simple and difficult. It is obvious that you have to love this work. In 10 years the number of oyster farmers has decreased by half. He works from Monday to Sunday, all year round, even with a 2.50 meter swell when the wind is strong.<\/p><p>From his boat, we go through the channel of Gujan, towards the \"Cabanes Tchanqu\u00e9es\". He wants to show me these old wooden houses mounted on stilts, stuck to the Bird Island, where oyster farmers used to live all year round!   From there, we went on the Teychan channel, by the Cap Ferret lighthouse and up the Piquet channel until we reached an oyster park, named \"Guian\", whose owner is Mr. Bonnot Adrien. The meeting with this young oyster farmer in the middle of his park was strong. He bought several oyster beds with his wife to create his own business and sell his oysters in his hut in \"Cassy\", a small fishing village located in front of Arcachon. I helped Adrien to move these \"pockets\" with high boots in a deep mud. Physically very trying. The wild oysters were not there. Adrien offered us to follow him by boat with his dog to his second park called \"Estoy de Marens\". My first oyster catch was good but we were not completely satisfied! However, our basket was starting to be full. I was happy to be able to visit several oyster beds.   He had arranged small oysters scattered on the ground between four spikes. This ingenious method favors the growth of the oyster. Several times he asked me to be careful where I walked so as not to damage them. The picking was easy and the tasting was excellent! The day passed and then we decided to return slowly, waiting for the high tide to return to the port.<\/p><p>Fred had told me about dolphins in the Arcachon basin. And since ancient times, the presence of dephinids has been mentioned.<\/p><p>I had then the reflex to look at my \"Alphabets of the Dolphins\", and to find in part \"dolphins, Arcachon (basin)\" and the reference of the book of Brigitte Sifaoui (Editions Atlas). I was able to obtain the address of the association G.R.E.M.S : Groupe de Recherche et d'Etude des Mammif\u00e8res Marins (Group for Research and Study of Marine Mammals) in Gujan-Mestras, but without a phone number. Coming back from a walk, I went to run to the other end of the village and try to find the house. When I got to the house, there was no name on the mailbox and several houses had the same address! I finally met Mr. Boubert Jean-Jacques, in charge of protecting the natural reserve of the arguin bank, located in front of the dune of Pilat. He was in charge, among other things, of taking care of the association on dolphins created by the S.E.P.A.N.S.O, the federation of the Societies for the Study, the Protection and the Development of the Nature in the Southwest. A little surprised to see me all sweaty, he granted me a few minutes. My disappointment was immediate when he told me that the group of sedentary dolphins had not existed for a long time. In fact all of them were dead! So the association created for this purpose was almost extinct since a few years. He offered me the magazine of \"Sud-Ouest Nature n\u00b081\/1988, Les dauphins du bassin d'Arcachon\" reporting all their works since 1988. The next day, he called me to give me a scientific report by Mr. Ferrey Marc published in the \"Terre et la Vie, revue d'\u00e9cologie n\u00b03, juillet-septembre 1993, Statut et comportement social du Grand Dauphin ( Tursiops truncatus ) dans le bassin d'Arcachon\".<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dbf546d elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"dbf546d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"250\" height=\"188\" src=\"https:\/\/julienmarchal.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/arcachon7.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-3819\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4eca919 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4eca919\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Indeed, the creation of the association dates back to 1989, one year after the first photographs were taken of bottlenose dolphins, Tursiops truncatus, in the basin. It was Mr. Ferrey Marc, scientist and dolphin specialist, who proposed to Mr. Boubert to participate in the study of cetaceans. Not sure that this complicity would be fruitful, he accepted out of curiosity. Between 1988 and 1996, a thousand hours of research and more than eight thousand identifications by individual photographs were carried out on the dolphins. The sedentary group was six in number, their names were \"Ego\u00efne\", \"Petite Faucille\", \"Vire\", \"Grande Faucille\", \"Om\u00e9ga\" and \"Fran\u00e7ois\". The first one was a female because she was with her baby named \"Petite Faucille\". Later, the team determined that \"Little Sickle\" was also a female. The bond between the two formed the core of the group and lasted until the end of 1995.<\/p><p>Very often the team observed that the dolphins \"Vire\" and \"Big Sickle\" accompanied \"Little Sickle\" when its mother was obliged to leave. This characteristic behavior of female dolphins helping the mother to protect her calf is cited in all scientific studies on Tursiops truncatus around the world, in order to give the calf the best chance of survival. Therefore, the G.R.E.M.S. decided to believe in the presence of two other females accompanying the mother and her pup. The sex of the female \"Fran\u00e7ois\" could only be determined after a few hours of diving with her: it was a female. She had a solitary behavior and was observed in the group only once in two. Her contacts with humans were particular and touching.<\/p><p>The \"Omega\" dolphin had its fin cut in the shape of an omega, hence its name. Aggressive and vigilant, the animal used to watch the group against intruders and the presence of boats. Nobody knew if this dolphin was male or female. But the absence of births in this group of six dolphins for more than ten years made the team wonder about its effectiveness as a male. \"Omega\" played the role of the protective male, patriarch of a harem, attentive and indispensable to the survival of the five females.<\/p><p>G.R.E.M.S. had noticed that the five dolphins were always on their guard, wary and fearful of the team. However, meeting them every year should have allowed them to approach them better. This behavior was stigmatized by moving in a compact and orderly formation and by long dives. The territory of the Bay of Arcachon inspired a real danger, the channels, sandbanks, tides, currents, nets, oyster beds requiring a constant vigilance.<\/p><p>Despite the massacres, six sedentary dolphins survived for a very long time on the French Atlantic coast. But, slowly the group disappeared over the years. \"Vire\" died at the age of 45 and then the others. Some of them were found washed up on the beaches. No births had been noted. However, a female can give birth every three years. The number of animals decreased significantly and the last individual disappeared in 2001.
