What happens

On Hungary's Hortobágy puszta, a horseman stands on two galloping horses, then four, then FIVE. Hungarian grey cattle wear enormous horns, shaggy racka sheep get the ball stuck in their corkscrew horns, and thousands of cranes trumpet over the Nine-Arch Bridge at sunset.

Fun facts

  • Hortobágy is one of Europe's biggest grassy plains, called the puszta.
  • Racka sheep have long corkscrew horns.
  • Hungarian grey cattle have horns as wide as a door.
