Dyrebeskyttelsen Norge Tromsø

"The most ethical way to incorporate animals into your travels is to lend a hand to the local animal shelter. The passionate team at Dyrebeskyttelsen Norge Tromsø is always looking for enthusiastic volunteers. Especially if you are staying in Tromsø for a while and/or have experience with animal shelters, do send them a message to see if you can help out in any way. I'd always recommend these kinds of experiences over husky or reindeer sledding, as such practices essentially use animals to make money. If you insist on doing a husky tour, at least Arctic Adventure Tours is transparant about their animal welfare policy. Still, they breed dogs and train them from a young age with the sole purpose of entertaining people. So, if you're in doubt about wanting support that, consinder helping out the animal shelter! Volunteering is the perfect way to give back to the region you're visiting."
