Ghosts of the landscape: how folklore and songs are key to rewilding Finland's reindeer
Ghosts of the landscape: how folklore and songs are key to rewilding Finland's reindeer.
For ecologists restoring the vast bogs of remote Karelia, wild reindeer are not just part of the environment but entwined with the ancient culture of the boreal forests.
Now, a plan is being hatched to reintroduce them. The peatland has been restored and the first wild reindeer will be released here in 2028. The aim is to eventually have a herd of 300.
The Finnish climate scientist Tero Mustonen has been leading efforts to reintroduce wild reindeer to Karelia.
