Wolverine, Wolf and Brown Bear photography Kontiovaara in Lieksa, Northern Karelia
Kontiovaara site is located about 30 km distant from Lieksa centre in Northern Karelia region in easternmost Finland.
Kontiovaara offers excellent opportunities to photograph Wolverines from comfortable log cabins and professional hides in natural environment. Also Brown Bear is regular and even some Wolves and Lynx have been seen and photographed here.
This might be the only baiting site in Finland where the “big 4” – Bears, Wolverines, Wolves and Lynxes have been seen. The latter two are very rare, but a Lynx that visited in May 2009 stayed around for almost 2 weeks. Wolf has been seen and photographed several times, usually in June and July.
