- Long before the Arctic looked the way it does now, a stretch of Norway's northern coastline supported an unexpectedly rich mix of wildlife.
- That picture has emerged from a cave where thousands of years of natural deposits quietly protected the remains of animals that lived during a comparatively mild phase of the last Ice Age.
- The site has offered an unusually complete record of life in an environment that rarely preserves such ancient evidence.
