Editing Bardu Municipality (section)

===Coat of arms===
The [[coat of arms]] was granted on 6 June 1980. The official [[blazon]] is ''"[[Or (heraldry)|Or]], a wolverine [[statant]] [[Sable (heraldry)|sable]]"'' ({{langx|no|I gull en gående svart jerv. }}). This means the arms have a [[charge (heraldry)|charge]] that is a [[wolverine]] which has a [[tincture (heraldry)|tincture]] of [[sable (heraldry)|sable]]. The [[field (heraldry)|field]] (background) has a [[tincture (heraldry)|tincture]] of [[Or (heraldry)|Or]] which means it is commonly colored yellow, but if it is made out of metal, then gold is used. The wolverine was chosen as a symbol for the large [[forest]]s and the rich [[wildlife]] in the municipality. There is a permanent population of wolverines living in the extensive forests  and mountain areas of Bardu. The motif also expresses strength and continuity. The arms were designed by [[Arvid Sveen]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Civic heraldry of Norway - Norske Kommunevåpen |url=https://www.heraldry-wiki.com/heraldrywiki/index.php?title=Bardu |access-date=2023-01-24 |publisher=Heraldry of the World}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Bardu, Troms (Norway) |url=https://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/no-19-22.html |access-date=2023-01-24 |website=Flags of the World}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Bardu kommune, våpen |url=https://foto.digitalarkivet.no/fotoweb/archives/5003-Kommunev%C3%A5pen/Kart%20og%20tegninger%20og%20segl/he10071208070154.tif.info#c=%2Ffotoweb%2Farchives%2F5003-Kommunev%25C3%25A5pen%2F%3Fq%3Dbardu |access-date=2023-01-24 |website=Digitalarkivet |publisher=Arkivverket |language=no}}</ref>
