Predation in Kiekula
posted by apolli on 3 July 2010
The workstation I have at the residence allows me to look out onto the entrance road for the Kiekula annex of the Kilpisjärvi station. A few days ago, I saw a small red fox coming down the road. I marveled at my good fortune to see such a rare event. Well, turns out it's not so rare. At least once day this red fox comes down the road, and it's looking for food. This morning I watched it successfully stalk and catch one of the black voles from the burrows in the roadside.
