A rancher seen with his mare waiting during the branding. The branding of the Navarrese cattle with the "VE" (Valley of Erro-Erroibar) by the hand of the sheriff of the valley. This is a Spanish Cattle Branding, a tradition of the Pyrenees of the North of Navarre. The treaty signed in 1856 by the Navarrese valley of Erro and the French of Baigorri to share the pastures in the communal of Sorogain is still valid today. During the year the traditional livestock brands are celebrated in order to distinguish the specimens on both sides of the border.
