In the part of the zoo called "The Nordics", visitors can see species such as harbour seals, reindeer, musk oxen, Eurasian eagle-owls, brown bears and grey wolves. The "Arctic Ring", which opened in 2013, has an exhibit for polar bears (including a tunnel allowing underwater views) and an aviary for North Atlantic seabirds (alcids).

The Arctic Ring has given the polar bears 3,100 m2 of lovely new space to frolic in, much more space more than they had previously. The facility attempts as far as possible to resemble the polar bears' natural habitat in the wilds of the Arctic. Therefore, the site has been designed like a tundra coast with sections of rock, grasses, herbs, small bushes and dwarf willow, just like in the Arctic. The large predators can dig in the earth and search for food, jump into water from the rocks and dive into the 1,900 m3 salt-water pool.
