The quota for this season allowed for 909 reindeers to be hunted in East Iceland. The hunting has been difficult recently because of a fog that lies over a large part of the hunting area. Jóhann G. Gunnarsson from the Environmental Institute says that many animals have not been hunted in Fljótdalsheiði. „The weather was really bad last week but today and yesterday we got nice weather. If the weather stays this way we are hopeful that we will finish the hunting in the next few days.“ There is great deal of interest for hunting reindeers in Iceland and about 2.000 applications for hunting the 909 animal quota were received this year.
