WWF

: Help save one of Norway's last magical places

 

In its final session before Christmas, the Norwegian government will decide

how much of Southern Scandinavia's last remaining large old-growth forest is

to be protected.

 

Send an email now and urge Norway to protect this magical place

The Trillemarka-Rollagsfjell area in Norway covers low-land forests with

broadleaved deciduous trees, herb-rich spruce forests, dramatic river

canyons and miles and miles of undulating forested hills covered by spruce

and pine - all overlooked by majestic mountains.

 

Within the forest scientists have discovered over 100 species that are

endangered and threatened in Norway. The three-toed woodpecker, golden eagle

and Siberian jay are just a few of the examples of the rich wildlife

thriving in the old trees, where rare lichens and fungi conjures up a

uniquely magical atmosphere.

 

If the government fails to protect the whole of Trillemarka-Rollagsfjell in

the coming weeks then the area's unique environment and precious wildlife

will be under threat.

 

Send an email now to the Norwegian government, urging them to do the right

thing and protect all of Trillemarka-Rollagsfjell!

Thank you,

WWF International

P.S. Help spread the word by sending an e-card to your friends and family.

The more people who take action, the better the chance we have of convincing

Norway to do the right thing.

 

 

Only protection of the entire forest will ensure that this pristine place is

not fragmented by logging and the uncontrolled development of holiday

cottages.
