Barnacle Geese breed mainly in the North Atlantic Arctic islands. There are three main populations with different breeding and wintering areas, from west to east:
Breeding in eastern Greenland, wintering in the Hebrides of western Scotland and western Ireland. Population of about 40,000.
Svalbard breeding, wintering in the Solway Firth on the border of England and Scotland. Population of about 24,000.
Novaya Zemlya breeding, wintering in the Netherlands. Population Approximately 130,000.
A new fourth population, derived from the population Novaya Zemlya, moved since 1975, breeding on islands in the Baltic (Estonia, Finland, Denmark and Sweden), and winter in the Netherlands. Population in 8000.

The ecology, behavior and life history

Flock fall migration
Barnacle Geese often design their nests on the cliffs of the mountains away from predators (especially arctic foxes and polar bears) but away from food. Like all geese, pigeons are fed by adults. Instead of bringing food for newborns geese, geese brought to earth.

Arctic foxes are attracted by the noise made by the parent geese during this period and the harvesting of young many dead or wounded. Foxes also prey on young and are driven by parents to feeding areas of wetlands.
The call is a Kaw.
People in the Scandinavian countries could extract wild birds. It is well known that birds at the zoo escaped from Stockholm in the sixties and began breeding Skaergaarden. [edit]
