Izinja azigcini nje ngokujabulisa izingane ezincane, kodwa futhi zinempilo. Lesi isiphetho esifinyelelwe ithimba labacwaningi bamazwe ngamazwe ngemva kocwaningo olunzulu eFinland. Ososayensi benza ucwaningo kubazali ababalelwa ku-400 ababenengane phakathi kuka-2002 no-2005. Inhloso bekuwukuthola ukuthi kukhona yini ukuxhumana phakathi kwezifo zokuphefumula ezinganeni nokuhlala nenja endlini.
