Immortalized as Santa Claus' beasts of burden, reindeer have been domesticated for more than 2000 years. Reindeer live in arctic and sub-artic regions, predominately in Finland, Sweden, Norway, and Russia, though they have also been introduced in North America. They are well adapted to arctic tundra and the rugged evergreen forest that borders it. The species that reindeer belong to are well-known for their marathon-like migrations, which they undertake to insure a steady supply of food. "Caribou" is the North American name for reindeer. Typically, caribou are considered to be wild while reindeer are considered domesticated. There are some anatomical differences between caribou and reindeer, but these are quite minor. Reindeer diets consist mainly of so-called "reindeer moss", though they are opportunistic eaters, and in summer months they also feed on grasses, fungus, various plants and leaves. In zoos where suitable grazing areas are not large enough, many reindeer subsist on hay and grain. Typically, reindeer and caribou thrive in large, nomadic herds. These herds can migrate upwards of 500 miles looking for food. Reindeer and caribou are strong swimmers, due in part to their muscular build, but also because their hooves are shaped to function as strong paddles, and their two-layer coats provide them some measure of bouyancy as well as the insulation needed to survive in very cold temparatures. Reindeer have gained widespread domesticated status, being used as pack animals and farmed for milk, meat, and their hides. There are over 3 million domesticated reindeer spread over northern Eurasia and Alaska. In some parts of the world, particularly arctic regions, whole economies revolve around their reindeer stock. Reindeer are born for speed. A reindeer calf can walk within one hour of birth, and can outrun a human after only one day of development. Fully developed reindeer have keen senses of smell and good hearing, but their sense of sight is not well developed. Reindeer are the only species of deer where both sexes have antlers. They grow new antlers every year. Wolves prey on caribou and reindeer throughout the year, though especially in the winter months. In spring, summer, and fall, reindeer must worry about bears. Calves are susceptible to smaller predators as well; golden eagles have been known to hunt them during the early summer, and lynx are natural predators in the fall when caribou migrate into forested areas. Humans have hunted caribou for many thousands of years.
