In northern Finland, reindeer-herd management has experienced two major transitions: extensification of intensive herding, and development of supplementary/corral feeding in winter. The transistions were studied in six herding associations in different parts of the Finnish reindeer management area. It was suggested that intensive herding turns into more extensive forms as the reasons for intensive herding (predation, reindeer disappearing to foreign areas, protection of agricultural fields) gradually ceased to exist. The results of the study, based on interviews of elderly reindeer herders, were variable. In the three southern areas intensive herding changed to the free ranging system at the latest during WWII, whilst in the northern areas intensive herding was replaced by extensive herding with the aid of snowmobiles in the 1960s. In the southern herding associations, especially, supplementary/corral feeding in winter was considered necessary, from the 1970s onwards, to compensate for the loss of arboreal lichens associated with forest regeneration.

Land-use and climate related drivers of change in the reindeer management system in Finland : Geography of perceptions
Rasmus, Sirpa; Wallen, Henri; Turunen, Minna; Landauer, Mia; Tahkola, Juho; Jokinen, Mikko; Laaksonen, Sauli (Elsevier BV, 2021)Drivers of change in the reindeer management system are rather well-known. But when developing the governance to support the traditional livelihoods, it is crucial to understand also practitioner perceptions. Systematic ... -
Winter feeding effects on female reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) gut microbiota and to short chain fatty acid production
Mönttinen, Miitri (2022)Gut microbiota (the community of microbes) metabolises otherwise undigestible components of the diet, most of all those found in plant and lichen cell walls. This process forms short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) which are ... -
Experimental evidence of the long-term effects of reindeer on Arctic vegetation greenness and species richness at a larger landscape scale
Sundqvist, Maja K.; Moen, Jon; Björk, Robert G.; Vowles, Tage; Kytöviita, Minna-Maarit; Parsons, Malcolm A.; Olofsson, Johan (Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2019)1. Large herbivores influence plant community structure and ecosystem processes in many ecosystems. In large parts of the Arctic, reindeer (or caribou) are the only large herbivores present. Recent studies show that reindeer ... -
Exploring the mechanisms by which reindeer droppings induce fen peat methane production
Fritze, Hannu; Penttilä, Timo; Mäkiranta, Päivi; Laiho, Raija; Tuomivirta, Tero; Forsman, Jukka; Kumpula, Jouko; Juottonen, Heli; Peltoniemi, Krista (Elsevier BV, 2021)Peatlands, especially fens, are known to emit methane. Reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) use mires mainly as spring and summer pastures. In this work we observed that adding reindeer droppings to fen peat increased the potential ...
