Abstract

Interdecadal variations in the migration of Alopex lagopus Linnaeus in East-European tundras are studied. The most intense and long-distance migrations are detected during the periods of the highest number of these animals. The directions of migration are determined to a substantial extent by the features of behavioral responses of different sex and age groups of the animals to the environment.
