Järvzoo is a zoo in Järvsö, Sweden, which has a large collection of Nordic animals.{{Cite web|url=https://www.aftonbladet.se/a/V9J0r4|title=Familjen ryckte ut – fick oväntat besök i vedpannan|date=May 15, 2022|website=www.aftonbladet.se}} These include the major carnivores of Sweden: the wolf, arctic fox, bear, lynx, and wolverine, as well as moose, roe deer, reindeer, Finnish forest reindeer, and several species of birds. In the debate on the reintroduction of the wild boar, which was eradicated from Sweden at the end of the 19th century, it was stated in 2014 that Järvzoo and the wild boar there could play a central role in a reintroduction project.{{Cite web|url=http://www.vk.se/1148477/aterinplantera-skogsvildren|title=Återinplantera skogsvildren | Västerbottens-Kuriren|date=March 23, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140323224539/http://www.vk.se/1148477/aterinplantera-skogsvildren |archive-date=2014-03-23 }}{{Cite news|url=https://sverigesradio.se/artikel/jarvzoo-fyller-30-ar-invigdes-i-september-1992|title=Järvzoo fyller 30 år – invigdes i september 1992|first1=Bizz|last1=Sjöblom|first2=P4|last2=Gävleborg|newspaper=Sveriges Radio |date=September 14, 2022|via=sverigesradio.se}}{{Cite web|url=https://www.dn.se/sverige/djurparksforeningen-om-skansen-jonas-privata-handel-valdigt-olampligt/|title=Djurparksföreningen om Skansen-Jonas privata handel: "Väldigt olämpligt"|date=January 26, 2023|website=Dagens Nyheter}}
