Obviously, nature is observed all over France, even in the center of Paris or in the densely populated former industrial areas of the northeast. But it is not surprising that over the past 50 years, in most parts of France, diversity in nature has decreased due to:
Today in France, wildlife tends to breed in areas of least human activity, in the highlands of eastern and southern France, where agriculture remains more traditional and less intensive, and there are large areas of woodland.

Conclusion
Some species inevitably became extinct in the nature of France. Survived, protected and not endangered:
In areas that have not been ravaged by industrial agriculture, the diversity of insects, birds and animals is rich and abundant. There are other areas, especially in the hills of the southern half of France, where nature flourishes as always. Some nearly extinct species have reappeared or been reintroduced with varying degrees of success: vultures in the Massif Central, bears in the Pyrenees, wolves in the Alps.
