The park is an important resting area for Nordic migratory birds: Every year in autumn and spring, tens of thousands of Greater White-fronted Geese and Bean Geese, as well as Common Cranes, rest here, plus approx. 1,000 Great Crested Grebes and 2,000 Common Pochards. All three native eagle species (Lesser Spotted Eagle, White-tailed Eagle, and Osprey) breed here; beavers and otters are widespread. Other species: White Stork (in many villages), Marsh Harrier, Common Snipe, Bluethroat, etc.
