The Norwegian Zoological Society (Norsk Zoologisk Forening;
NZF) was founded in 1946 and is the only NGO in Norway covering all groups of animals, from insects
and crustaceans to mammals and birds. The society is open for all individuals
interested in zoology - amateurs as well as professional zoologists. The
society's main aims are inform the public, as well as the authorities,
about wildlife in Norway and to work for the conservation of wild animals and
their habitats.
NZF has seven local divisions around the country that arrange
their own field trips and meetings.
The membership journal Fauna is published four
times a year. Fauna is an important source of information
on all groups of wild Norwegian animals. The journal has a popularized profile emphasizing
readability for all members as well as scientific quality. All
main papers have English summaries.
