Greenlandic dog Sisimiut, Greenland Ringed Seal Greenland 58 59 D I SCOVER MORE AT SWANHE L L EN I C .COM Extraordinary Encounters Although much of Greenland is covered in ice, several iconic Arctic species thrive on its land and in its skies and waters. The ringed seal is a common sighting. These tough little mammals have adapted extremely well to Arctic life and can be spotted feeding, playing and resting along the icy fjords. The cunning (and very cute) Arctic fox is widespread throughout Greenland. These resourceful creatures will stalk polar bears hoping to get a few scraps of what’s left behind from the bear’s next kill. The Greenland sled dog is synonymous with East Greenland and is one of the purest and most isolated dog breeds in the world. These dogs are known for their strength, willpower and resilience.
