Atlantic puffin
The spectacular sea cliffs around Noup Head are home to thousands of seabirds including 60,000 common guillemot and black-legged kittiwake, 30,000 razorbill and numerous Atlantic puffin and black guillemot. During the 1990s the black rat ("Rattus rattus") may have been present although they have not been recorded since. Mice, and the Orkney vole are present however, as are European otters.
