Langedrag was fouded with a dream of connecting people to nature and let them experience the beauty of being with animals. However, it was also a wish to show how much some typical farmanimals have from their wild ancestors and how nature intended them to be. In the beginning of 1980, Langedrag was approached by the agricultural university here in Norway and asked if we could have two wolves as a research on their behaviour. On our farm, we have approx 300 different animals from ca 20 different species. A lot of our animals are what is considered typical nordic species, such as; moose, reindeer, muskox, norwegian fjordhorses and Norwegian Telemark-cow. What we are most renowned for, is perhaps our endangered species; our wolves, artic fox and lynx.
We offer a wide range of experiences to be had around animals. Why not join us on our daily feeding tours and get really close to our moose. The children can come inside with us when we feed the reindeer and artic fox and help feed them. We have lots of animals and therefor; lots of possibility to get close, learn, experience and have
