Reindeer and Caribou are the same species.
Every reindeer, regardless of sex and age, grows a new set of antlers each year.
Ice and snow are no problem. Reindeer have thick winter coats for Arctic life.
Nomadic tribes throughout Arctic Scandinavia and Russia have domesticated reindeer.
During May and June, the calves are born.
Edible mushrooms, lichens, Arctic vegetation, straw and hay are the favourite food of the reindeer.
Extra wide, splayed hooves enable the reindeer to spread their weight on soft snow to prevent them sinking.
Reindeer have a short, dark summer coat and a thick, lighter coloured winter coat.
