    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    And while there’s a fence to prevent reindeer from crossing borders, that barrier dates back to 1954 with parts in disrepair, the Norwegian Directorate of Agriculture said in a statement last Thursday.

    The rundown fence has allowed 42 reindeer to cross into Russia this year in search of better pastures in Pasvik Zapovednik, a Russian national park.

    Russia has already sent one claim — with two different ways of calculating the compensation — for the runaway reindeer’s grazing, the Norwegian Directorate of Agriculture told Insider in an email on Thursday.

    The latter claim is calculated based on the total number of days the reindeer have spent grazing in the national park.

    “It is strictly forbidden to cross the border into Russia, for reindeer too,” the Norwegian Directorate of Agriculture said in a statement last Thursday, according to an AFP translation.

    Russia’s natural resources and environment ministry did not immediately respond to requests for comment from Insider sent outside regular business hours.
