Lapland Day 3: Ranua Arctic Zoo

We are now at Ranua Zoo where there are lots of animals like arctic animals.

This is a snowy owl.
This is a snowy owl sitting next to a pile of bloody meat...



This was a golden eagle. It's really cool.
This is the wing span of different birds.












This is a raven and it could say Hong Kong...
These were wild boars (and boar butts)...

The polar bears! Such cool animals. I even saw one stand on its hind legs.



This is a polar bear beating up a tire.
















These are wolves. There were 3 wolves and they were basically walking around in a giant loop.













This is a lynx. You may not have heard of them or probably not have seen them but they are pretty cool.









This is wolverine, the animal not the person. They are more dangerous than they seem because they hide up in trees and drop down on reindeers.











This is the igloo that we saw.

This is the little ice sculptures that we saw on top of the hot chocolate and coffee place.

This is a fox. What it is in is a warming spot for it.

This is an arctic fox. It might not look  like it because it's not white.

And this is the white arctic fox. And they're so cute.
