🐦Atlantic Puffin
Lunnefågel (Fratercula arctica) är en fågel som tillhör familjen alkor. Den häckar i nordatlanten både på den europeiska och nordamerikanska sidan. Lunnefågeln minskar kraftigt i antal till följd av predation från invasiva arter, miljöförstöring och födobrist. Internationella naturvårdsunionen IUCN anser den vara hotad och placerar den i kategorin sårbar. Den häckade i Sverige fram till 1970 men anses idag utdöd i svenskt territorium.
