Speaking about fauna, we haven’t big mammals, apart from wild boars and mouflons, recently imported by man to the island, but we have to say that Elba is rich with some “smaller” animals that deserve attention and protection. There are many birds, about eighty nest-building species, and many more migratory birds. Elba and the other islands of the Tuscan Archipelago represent a true "natural bridge" for these birds facing migratory travels of thousands of miles in their movements on the "North-South" routes.
