Wildlife in France

Wildlife in France






Visitors to France expect to see medieval villages and magnificent scenery, but the wild animals that live in the countryside are usually forgotten. However, France has very large areas of unspoiled countryside, allowing many rare and unusual species to live in peace, above all in the forests and in the mountainous regions.
Perhaps best know, because they frequently get in the news, are the Pyreneean bears. Several of these brown bears have been released in the mountains in recent years, to the pleasure of environmentalists and the annoyance of local sheep farmers.
