Although it has been the test site for 224 nuclear bombs, the 1500 (+/-) occupants that resided there were removed for the years they were doing the testings there. 2700 people (+/-) live there now. What the effects that the testing grounds may be having upon them I do not know.

WHY DO FEW PEOPLE LIVE ON THE ARCHIPELAGO OF NOVAYA ZEMLYA?

Not many people live on the Novaya Zemlya archipelago because it's extremely cold there, almost all year round. It's also pretty isolated, with no good ways to get there. There aren't many towns or things to help people live comfortably, and it's not easy to grow food or have a normal life in such a harsh place. Plus, the Russian military has been there, so it's not a typical place for regular living. Overall, it's just not a very friendly place for people to live.

Wild reindeer generally live in Russia's boreal forest, but also overlap with domestic herds that reside on the tundra. Reindeer do not live as far south as major cities such as Moscow. Generally, they live in undisturbed forest. In eastern Russia, they live almost as far south as the Russia-Mongolia border. They live all the way to the edge of the Arctic Ocean. During the last ice age, the ancestors of reindeer crossed the Bering land bridge and evolved into North American caribou.
