Between the moorland and the undergrowth, these rocky slopes are not ideal for crops. They are ecological corridors and serve as sanctuaries and food stores for birds, molluscs, insects and mammals. While they may be difficult to see, foxes, squirrels, deer, wild boar, badgers, etc., leave traces of their passage. This is the case for a herd of wild boar, which can travel up to 20 km overnight, looking for food, including dried fruit, seeds and even some small mammals. Their wide footprints can be seen in soft ground and their hiding places, located in small hollows on the ground, often in a place that is covered and difficult to access.
