Commuting trips in Arctic foxes last less than 3 days and occur between 0–2.9 times a month. Nomadism is found in 3.4% of the foxes, and loop migrations (where the fox travels to a new range, then returns to its home range) are the least common at 1.1%. Arctic foxes in Canada that undergo nomadism and migrations voyage from the Canadian archipelago to Greenland and northwestern Canada. The duration and distance traveled between males and females is not significantly different. </p><p>Arctic foxes closer to goose colonies (located at the coasts) are less likely to migrate. Meanwhile, foxes experiencing low-density lemming populations are more likely to make sea ice trips. Residency is common in the Arctic fox population so that they can maintain their territories. Migratory foxes have a mortality rate &gt;3 times higher than resident foxes. Nomadic behavior becomes more common as the foxes age.<sup id="cite_ref-ReferenceA_46-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ReferenceA-46"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>46<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>In July 2019, the <a href="/wiki/Norwegian_Polar_Institute" title="Norwegian Polar Institute">Norwegian Polar Institute</a> reported the story of a yearling female which was fitted with a <a href="/wiki/GPS" class="mw-redirect" title="GPS">GPS</a> tracking device and then released by their researchers on the east coast of <a href="/wiki/Spitsbergen" title="Spitsbergen">Spitsbergen</a> in the <a href="/wiki/Svalbard" title="Svalbard">Svalbard</a> group of islands.<sup id="cite_ref-47" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-47"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>47<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> The young fox crossed the polar ice from the islands to <a href="/wiki/Greenland" title="Greenland">Greenland</a> in 21 days, a distance of 1,512&#160;km (940&#160;mi).
