This work will enable us to better understand how the rodents and gulls, which live in these wetlands and in which the antibiotic resistant bacteria were isolated, were contaminated.<\/p>\n<p>In the framework of this internship, another meeting of these two teams was organised in mid-May 2018. Olivier Boutron and Marion Vittecoq were thus able to present their research at Kristianstad University and exchange ideas with the researchers there and with the managers of the Vattenriket biosphere reserve, which covers over 8000 hectares around the city. These exchanges of ideas are all the more interesting because this Swedish region faces many of the same challenges as the Camargue, in the first place, the need to conserve the numerous wetlands found in it, and to adapt to current changes such as the inflow of sea water.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_19457\"  class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/tourduvalat.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/camargue-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-19457 size-blog-small\" src=\"https:\/\/tourduvalat.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/camargue-1-640x395.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"395\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span>Lake Arasl\u00f6vssj\u00f6n was the last place visited in the Vattenriket Biosphere Reserve by the Tour du Valat scientists who were accompanied by their colleagues from Kristianstad University on 16 May 2018.
