Nordens Ark is a private non-profit foundation that works to ensure endangered animals have a future. We are engaged in conservation, rearing, research and training, as well as doing what we can to increase public awareness of biological diversity. Much of our work is done in the field, both in Sweden and overseas.

We strive to strengthen populations of at-risk species by releasing individuals into the wild, and by improving the habitats in which they live. Nordens Ark has national responsibility for breeding and releasing several Swedish species, among others, lesser white-fronted goose, green toad and several beetle and butterfly species.
