North Italy's nomadic shepherds are a phenomenon unique in the world. Their nomadicnature is taken to the extreme since they move constantly rather than solely inthe winter or the summer, as in the usual nomadism. Their home is on wheels andtheir territory is the tightly regulated yet sprawling Triveneto area. The Trivenetotranshumance moves beyond private/public property divides, and indeed beyondlawful/unlawful distinctions, giving rise to what I have called an animal normativity.Relying on Valentina De Marchi's text 'Fame d'Erba' on the Triveneto transhumance,I show how territory becomes a question of animal hunger, and movement becomesan atmospheric, silent and imperceptible affect that crosses private property boundaries,state law limitations, reservation areas and road networks. This way of being,beyond the usual distinctions, offers an example of an alternative political and legalorganisation that brings forth the continuum between the human, the natural and thelegal/political.
