Freyja broke her horn when she was a yearling. Horns do not grow back.

LARS houses research herds of muskoxen and reindeer. Most of our animals are born and raised here, although we do occasionally receive orphan muskoxen from the wild. During the summer months, LARS is open for the public to meet our herds and learn about their life history and biology; as well as the research we conduct at the station. To learn more about each species click on their individual section.
