General and Comparative Endocrinology, 1985
Serum levels of 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T3), free thyroxine (FT4), and cortisol were determined for free-ranging Svalbard reindeer during winter (March), summer (June-July), and autumn (October). A total of 48 animals representing adult males, adult barren, pregnant, and lactating females, and calves were shot, and blood sampled from their hearts.

Vigilance and fright behaviour in the insular Svalbard reindeer (Rangifer tarandus platyrhynchus)
Canadian Journal of Zoology, 2011The insular Svalbard reindeer ( Rangifer tarandus platyrhynchus Vrolik, 1829) provide an opportunity to study vigilance behaviour in the absence of predators and parasitizing insects. We measured vigilance and fright and flight response during summer 2006 in the Svalbard archipelago; in four areas on Nordenskiöld Land on the island Spitzbergen and in ...

Rabies is an important zoonotic disease with high fatality rates in animals and humans. In the Arctic, the Arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus) is regarded as the principal reservoir, but there is considerable debate about how the disease persists at the low population densities that are typical for this species.

Sexual dimorphism in the pelvic bones of Svalbard reindeer, Rangifer tarandus platyrhynchus
Journal of Zoology, 1987The determination of sex of carcasses of reindeer and caribou (Rangifer tarandus) is complicated because both sexes normally carry antlers. Growth curves of males and females diverge sufficiently so that the length of long bones can often indicate the sex of a carcass if its age at death is known; results, however, are not always conclusive. Pronounced

Veterinary Record, 2000
An experiment was conducted to evaluate moxidectin as a tool for understanding the impact of parasitism on wild Svalbard reindeer (Rangifertarandusplatyrhynchus). Adult females were injected subcutaneously with moxidectin at a dose rate of 0‐4 mg/kg bodyweight, and groups of animals were culled within its expected period of efficacy (around 14 days) or

Cestodes of reindeer (Rangifer tarandus platyrhynchus Vrolik) on the Arctic islands of Svalbard
Canadian Journal of Zoology, 1985Moniezia benedini and cysticerci of Taenia ovis krabbei were found during examination of 108 reindeer on Svalbard. Moniezia benedini occurred in calves and only in October. Cysticerci of Taenia ovis krabbei were found only in adult animals (>1 year). In females, the prevalence of T. o. krabbei was highest during summer (100% in August 1981).

Fungal Biology
The study examines Coniochaeta polymorpha strains isolated from reindeer droppings in Spitsbergen, focusing on their growth characteristics, antifungal resistance profiles, and enzymatic activities. Notably, all strains exhibited high resistance to fluconazole (MIC, 256 μg/mL), suggesting an inherent trait.
