Animals roaming the streets of Florence: wolves, foxes, porcupines. Watch the videos

The enforced confinement to which Italians have been subjected has brought many animals to the centers of our cities: quadrupeds that descend nightly (but sometimes during the day) from the hills or woods and find themselves strolling through urban centers left empty by measures against the Covid-19 coronavirus epidemic. Of course, it is rhetorical to say that nature has reclaimed its space: simply, the silence and the absence of confusion prompt a few beasts a little more reckless and “exploratory” than the others to make a few forays into unusual places.

They do, however, move a certain sympathy with the images of animals strolling among the streets usually busy or traveled by tourists. It also happens in one of the world’s capitals of mass tourism, Florence: by now, in the Tuscan capital, “sightings” of animals filmed by citizens follow one another day after day. And so here is a wolf roaming the streets of Sesto Fiorentino, a porcupine taking a stroll in Piazza Santo Spirito, right in front of the church that houses Michelangelo’s youthful crucifix, or a fox crossing the ring road boulevards. Below are some videos with animals around Florence, taken by citizens.
