• Norrskog ("Northern Forest"): This biome represents the dominant boreal forest ecosystem found in the northern regions of Sweden. It encompasses dense stands of evergreen trees, such as tall spruces and majestic firs, with a diverse understory of mosses, lichens, and low-lying shrubs. Wildlife such as moose,roe deer, and red foxes roam through the Norrskog, creating an immersive hunting experience.

• Fjällvidd ("Mountain Plateau"): This biome represents the alpine tundra found in the high-altitude areas of the Swedish mountains. Fjällvidd is characterized by rocky terrain, sparse vegetation, and hardy alpine plants. Here, hunters can encounter species such as reindeer, ptarmigans,lynx,hazel grouse,adapting to the challenging conditions of the mountain plateau.

• Sjölandskap ("Lake Landscape"): This biome represents the diverse wetland ecosystems surrounding lakes and rivers in Sweden. Sjölandskap features reed beds, water lilies, and various aquatic plants. Waterfowl such as ducks, geese, thrive in this habitat, along with beavers and otters that make their homes along the shores.

• Strandbranter ("Shore Bluffs"): This biome represents the elevated bluffs and rocky outcrops found along the Swedish lakeshores and riversides. Strandbranter offers panoramic views of the surrounding landscape and serves as vantage points for spotting wildlife. It is home to various bird species and provides habitats for small mammals such as marten and badger.

• Ängsmark ("Meadowland"): This biome represents the open meadows and grasslands scattered throughout the Swedish countryside. Ängsmark showcases a mix of grasses, wildflowers, and low-lying shrubs. Species such as roe deer, wild boar, and capercaillie can be found in these meadows, attracting predators like red foxes and birds of prey.

New animals:
Wolverine(class 4)-The wolverine is a medium-sized carnivorous mammal resembling a small bear that roams in the forests of this reserve.Encountering a wolverine on the Svendal wilds map would be a thrilling experience.They can quickly disappear into the dense forests, making them a challenging prey for even the most skilled hunters. Players will need to be patient and well-prepared to track and successfully hunt this creature.

European otter(class 2)-The European otter is a semi-aquatic mammal that inhabits the rivers, lakes, and coastal areas of Svendal.Players may spot these elusive creatures swimming gracefully in rivers or lakes, or perhaps catching fish near the water's edge.

Pine marten(class 1)-The pine marten is a small and agile carnivorous mammal that inhabits the forests and shore bluffs of Sweden.Tracking their movements through the forest, observing their agile climbs, and possibly witnessing their hunting skills would contribute to the immersive hunting experience on the map.

European badger(class 2)-The European badger is a sturdy and nocturnal mammal that can be found in the forests,shore bluffs and meadows of Sweden.The badger is primarily active at night, venturing out from its sett under the cover of darkness.The badger's burrowing behavior, foraging patterns, and elusive nature would make it a challenging animal to hunt or just observe from a distance.

Eurasian beaver(class 2)-The Eurasian beaver is a large semi-aquatic mammal that thrives in the waterways and wetlands of Sweden.Players may come across their dams, lodges, and feeding areas along rivers and wetlands,where they can find their rest zones near their dams and lodges

Arctic fox(class 2)-The arctic fox, also known as the polar fox or white fox, is a small and resilient mammal that inhabits the Arctic regions of Sweden.Players may spot these elusive creatures darting across the snowy landscape or using their keen senses to hunt for prey.

It could have the weather mechanics Yukon has

Yeah it snows sometimes on the map

#

I will be honest, class 3 seems a bit high for badger and beaver, I see them as being a class 2 species
I personally have wolverines listed as a class 3 species myself but I can understand one of the possible reasons that they are listed as class 4 here (a reputation for being tough and bullying bears)

#

I do like the name you chose for the reserve

brisk citrus
#

You have a good point i will actually put them in class 2 but i think ill keep wolverine class 4

What do you think about new animals i hope everyone likes them

#

I do enjoy the large amount of weasel species (4 in total from what I see), ranging from pine martens to wolverine

brisk citrus
#

Thank you,i was thinking like a whole 30 mins about what characteristics would martens have

bold moat
#

Is this reserve more of an inland reserve or is it a coastal area?
I’m curious

brisk citrus
#

Its more like a coastal area

#

But its not the coast of archipelago or sea,its just a very big lake

#

At the weekend im thinking im gonna add new callers,new gun and plumage types for new animals

bold moat

#

Well thats nice i hope both our reserves come out that would be incredeble

bold moat
#

Yeah, if people want to target polar bear, come to Whiterime Ridge, if you want to hunt Arctic Fox without worrying about becoming a meal to a polar bear, come to Svendal Wilds

brisk citrus
#

Lol,our maps would make a perfect combo

#

I just saw that Jaxy commented on your concept,congrats thats very nice

#

#

I’ve got one, it’s based on the Krag–Jørgensen, repeating bolt-action rifle,6.5 Swedish 4-8

SWEDEN MENTIONED

Now that this post has been bumped I have a couple species I would like to suggest for it starting with
• Barnacle Goose: anything about goose hunting in Sweden that I looked up usually mentioned this species and I think they look neat
• Common Merganser: It looks different from the other waterfowl we have so far
• Grey Seal
• Greater Scaup

It surely would

More of the new species:
Barnacle goose-class 1
Common Merganser-class 1
Greater scaup-class 1
New decoys:
Barnacle goose decoys
Common Merganser decoys
Greater Scaup decoys
Barnacle goose can be found landing at the cliffs and coastal area of the lake
Common mergansers are highly skilled swikmers and divers.They can often be seen swimming or diving for fish in rivers,lakes and creeks
Greater Scaup are also great swimmers and divers.They can be found swimming and diving mostly in lakes,but sometimes in other water bodies.
New multimounts and new animal plumage types coming soon

glad dawn

I excluded seal just because they mostly live in sea coastal area but in this map the coast is from big lake,but merganser is added

bold moat
#

Several new types of weasels and waterfowl plus a new environment is more then enough for me

As a swede, i would love a swedish map. However i think that it should be a bit more southern and coastal reserve, where you could hunt seal. I suggested a swedish west coast reserve, it did eh. I think that this would be a perfect map if it was coastal and during the winter, so that you could go on ice and hunt Grey seal.
