Greenland

edit

The Svalbard / NE Greenland / Franz Josef breeding population of B.B.hrota is the smallest in number, of the order of 6000+ individuals; they use the East Atlantic flyway to winter in Denmark, NE UK, and the Netherlands.

On this map, the huge red patch in northern Greenland is open to misinterpretation, and is therefore in my opinion misleading on the Wikipedia [Brant (goose)] page. (I realise this is a redrawing of another map which has the same issue).

A similar comment would apply to Ellesmere, Seymour, Baffin, and other Canadian islands.

I would be willing to help refine the map. Jwikip (talk) 09:40, 1 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
