Wildlife in Iceland. Reindeer were imported to Iceland in the 18th Century from Norway. They once lived wildly around the whole country, but now survive only in Eastern Iceland. There are around 3000 wild reindeer in Iceland, and their population is controlled with seasonal reindeer hunting permits. This ensures they do not damage the fragile highlands or grow to unsustainable herd sizes that would take food away from all the visiting sheep every summer.
