Fox News, just in time for the holidays, puts out an article on the fascinating subject of reindeer.  It’s all pretty interesting.  I never really had the need to educate myself a whole lot on caribou (that’s the other Sarah) but you can read Fox’s article in its entirety here.  I found the part that Rudolph was allegedly a female and that all of Santa’s reindeer were female to be kind of interesting.

According to the article, female reindeer retain their racks year-round while men shed theirs during the commencement of the winter months.   Therefore, if science is correct, all of Santa’s reindeer are female.  I’ve never seen an antler-less reindeer pulling the Santa sleigh, have you?

Happy Holidays.  I love this time of year.
