Update on mouse

Aha! Sysselmannen asked very kindly if I could deliver the deceased mouse to their office. Being a good citizen I did so immediately. It is now in the competent hands of one of their biologists, and I have a small hope to get an update myself about the creature, that is, cause of death, how it got there, whether it was infected with parasites ...

The biologist was pretty sure it was an Østmarkmus (Microtus rossiaemeridionalis in latin, Sibling vole in English) because of the hairy tail. So they´re not only in Grumant, it seems.





The cutest thing on Svalbard.
