In late August, the CAS research project, Climate effects on harvested large mammal populations, visited the field station at Tackåsen, Dalarna, Sweden - the head quarters of the Scandinavian Bear Project's field work.
Dalarna is home to about 300 bears, and many of them resides in the forest around Tackåsen. Together with field supervisor Sven Brunberg, the group visited the area of study.
