- ROMANIA: Island Fundul Mare (Balta Mică a Brăilei Natural Park) - administrative territory of Chiscani, a commune in Brăila County, Muntenia

Kuremari has today lines within the field with melioration canals on the Great/Big Brăila Island and her night resting area (on the shore the Crovia Arm of the Danube). Newest localisation is on the Island Fundul Mare.

Fundu Mare Island has an area of 1,899 ha, of which 965 are forest and 934 ha are freshwater (lakes Chiriloaia, Stan, Misăilă and Bratusca). The special conservation area of 857 ha in the south of the island and the colony of cormorants, herons and egrets at Chiriloaia, of ornithological interest, and the white-tailed eagle nests in the south of the island are of particular interest from a tourist point of view.
The mixed colony of herons, egrets and cormorants, located only 4 km from Brăila, was particularly appreciated by the governor of Sicily, Dr. Salvatore Cuffaro (2010), and by Prof. H. Alvaro from the University of Madrid.

Terente's hiding place can be visited by tourists
(visit of Dr. Salvatore Cuffaro, the Governor of Sicily (2010)
..."The packages are intended especially for the people of Braile and Galați. You can benefit from a boat tour on Lake Chiriloaia, where the famous Codin hid, from visiting Terente's hideout from Dârna and the piece of resistance if we can call it that, watching the family of white-tailed eagles from Lake Misăilă " informed the director of the park Dr. Eng. Radu Moisei."

btw. the story of Terente takes place early in the 20th century in Eastern Romania, where this famous outlaw lived kind of a Clyde with many Bonnies legend in the landscape of the Danube Delta - film: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0155251/; https://ro.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terente
