Bears have become the most prominent residents of many Italy's national parks. More than eighty of them currently live in the Parco Nazionale d'Abbruzzo, Lazio and Molise and some twenty brown bears occupy the area of Parco Naturale Adamello-Brenta. The majority of these animals have been introduced from Slovenia. Wolves, wildcats, snow voles, porcupines and more than fifty other species of mammals occupy the famous Parco Nazionale dei Monti Sibillini, located in the regions of Le Marche and Umbria.
