L'animale ('The Animal') is a compilation album by Italian singer Adriano Celentano, released in 2008 on his label Clan.

Overview The title of the album was suggested by Jovanotti, who used to call Celentano 'L'animale' as a nod to his instinctual nature.

The album consists of two CDs, the first one focusing on love longs, the second centered around protest songs and songs marked by social criticism. Each CD opens with a new recording, respectively a cover of 1996 Franco Battiato's song "La cura" and "Sognando Chernobyl", a Celentano-penned outburst against the violence against children, the dangers of nuclear power, the overbuilding and the death penalty. The idea to record "La cura" came from Claudia Mori, and on that occasion, Battiato created a new arrangement of the song. "Sognando Chernobyl" was launched with a music video directed by the same Celentano, which was exclusively broadcast on Sky Italia.
