The wild reindeer in Norway are struggling to reproduce. Never before have so few calves been counted in Knutshø, one of the wild reindeer areas. And the trend is negative in many areas – a reason for great concern.

Following two lean years at the Arctic fox captive breeding station at Sæterfjellet, Norway, six out of seven breeding pairs have a total of 34 pups. An uplifting success story.

For the first time, NINA researchers have recorded an Arctic fox giving birth. Now both they and you can follow the pups live via webcam from the Arctic fox breeding station in Oppdal, Norway.

The biomass of insects in Norway has decreased over the last four years. Weather has had an impact on insects who prefer cold and snow rich winters to thrive.

Radars that are used to report the weather also provide valuable insight into which migratory routes birds use. For the first time this tool will be used to map bird migration in Norway.
