Thank a lemming

10,000 Birds

Lemmings can have four or five litters a year of as many eight young. A friend of mine saw a family of eight Ermine while hiking this past summer. If they each raised nine owlets, the owlets alone would have eaten over 25,000 lemmings from that valley. Arctic Foxes will have as many as 16 kits on good lemming years.
