The archipelago is also home to some of the world’s largest colonies of seabirds, including gulls, terns, eider ducks, puffins, murres, cormorants, Atlantic kittiwakes, razor - bills and, occasionally, storm petrels.
Lofootidel pesitsevad ühed maailma suurimad merelinnukolooniad – kajakad, tiirud, hahad, lunnid, tirgud, kormoranid, algid ning mõnikord ka tormipääsud.
