About a dozen individual hares were observed in the Uvdle area in 1993. Insecta seen were limited and, pleasantly, there were no mosquitoes. Seventeen species of whales and six species of seals are known for Greenland waters. There are seven species of baleen whales or those without teeth but with strips of whale-bone, baleen, hanging from the roof of the mouth. These strips are frayed along the edges and they strain from the water small organisms on which the whales feed.
Most sea cliffs have gulls and seabirds present.
