Although you might expect bats, hanging from the cave walls in the Gargano you will instead find Caciocavallo Podolico, a mature cheese produced from the milk of the Podolico heritage cow breed, now on the brink of extinction. Also home to the fading Gargano goat breed from which Canestrato, a slightly spicy cheese is produced, the Gargano remains a sanctuary for ancient animals and precious cheeses. The Slow Food Presidia are working to protect these indigenous breeds and to promote the savory cheeses produced from their milk.
