Once a populated noisy built up area, Montevecchio now makes space, with its silence and its welcoming woods, for rich fauna that hosts resident animals: foxes, wild boars, hares, and numerous birds.
Montevecchio is also an area where Sardinian dear repopulate and hosts a large number of species that can be spotted in the evening when they leave the woods in search of water.

Every year colonies of “gente rossa” (pink folk) lay nests and spend the winter in the background of the ancient ruins of the city of Neapolis.
