Caribou
Caribou – sometimes called reindeer in Europe – are members of the deer family. They are generally larger than deer but smaller than moose, and they have thick coats that help them live in cold and snowy environments. Their unique hooves help them walk through deep snow and on soft ground. Every fall, their hooves grow sharp edges to let them break through ice in search of food. Unlike other members of the deer family, both male and female caribou can grow antlers.
