Unexpected photos of wild animals in abandoned houses

Modern man quite often mercilessly exploits nature, adapting it to his needs. Unspoiled nature is something mysterious and attractive today. Finnish photographer Kai Fagerström created an unusual photo collection “Home in the Woods”, waiting with a camera of curious wild animals that penetrate into abandoned houses in the forests. Completely surreal images of badgers, squirrels, foxes, owls and voles, who feel quite comfortable on peasant farmsteads, will not leave anyone indifferent.

“House in the Woods” is a unique collection of photographs depicting wild animals that have arranged housing in abandoned houses. The property owner died in a forest fire, and no one else lives in these houses. Fagerström, a famous Finnish photographer, wondered what was going on in these houses. To this end, he went with a camera into the woods.



It turned out that abandoned houses gradually began to master wild animals. In a series of pictures that now make up the photographer’s collection, Fagerström captured the cute and fluffy inhabitants of the forest – badgers, squirrels, foxes, owls and voles – who chose the houses in which a person once lived.


The photographer, during a talk about his work, explained that he was completely fascinated by his findings: Abandoned buildings were not completely empty. I am fascinated by the extent to which nature is being restored to places previously developed by man.”
