English: Coat of arms for the municipality of Lierne (kommune), Norway
The arms show three Lagopus lagopus (willow grouse). The birds are plentiful in the area and hunting them was of great importance historically for the inhabitants to survive during the winters in the area. The bird was thus chosen as a symbol for the municipality.
Norsk bokmål: Lierne kommunevåpen: "I blått tre stående sølv ryper, to over en."[1]
