The Arctic Fox Centre just bought some remote cameras which take photos of animals or other moving objects. These cameras will be used for preparing a web camera for The Arctic Fox Centre and to monitor bird nest predation in a research of the Natural History Institute. The first results are promising and we are now heading for the right location for fox camera and waiting for the birds to arrive on breeding grounds.
The other members of The Westfjords cluster have been busy during the winter, making plans for next summer, preparing experimental wildlife tours and working through the results of last summer. Amongst the projects for the summer is to map the wildlife „hot spots“ of the region as well as getting an idea of the tourist´s expectations and experiences regarding wildlife tours.
The Wild North was introduced in a Lunch Lecture on Friday, March 26th at the University Centre of Vestfjords. Many peple came to the lecture and we got a lot of questions and chat afterwards.
