Overview

The Loire is one of Europe's last free-flowing rivers − one of the few whose banks have not been developed and confined by man. As the seasons change, its water level rises and falls and the morphology of the river-bed alters. How do plants and animals adjust to these variations? How do they deal with droughts and flooding? The free-flowing Loire river illustrates one of Europe's distinctive natural ecosystems.
