Reindeer love this time of year! In winter, the hair of a reindeer's hide is multi-colored. The mane is white. The underbelly, rump, legs, and face are generally dark brown and the shoulders and ribs are light tan. In summer when the long guard hairs fall out and the soft fine 'downy' hairs are exposed, the reindeer appear dark colored (with white 'socks'). When considering the colors in the vegetation, snow, and on the hills and mountains in the background, it is thought that the reindeer's hair color serves to conceal them from predators.

Santa’s reindeer are most likely the R.t. platyrhynchus subspecies from the Svalbard islands off of Norway.
We know that because Clement C. Moore’s poem, "A Visit from Saint Nicholas,” which first introduced the world to Santa’s reindeer, describes them as tiny. The only reindeer that could really be considered tiny are the Svalbard subspecies (pictured), which weigh about half as much as the average reindeer species and are at least a foot shorter in length—that definitely proves useful when landing on roofs.

Broad hooves and dewclaws act as snowshoes and thereby enable the reindeer to travel more easily across deep snow. Other members of the deer family generally have small pointed hooves and, because they are not able to travel freely, may become restricted to small grazing areas called 'yards' when snowfalls are heavy. Researchers have found that reindeer can dig feeding craters when snow is as deep as 3 feet. Their shovel-like hooves also enable the reindeer to chip through hard and crusted snow.

Caribou vs Reindeer: What is the difference?
It's a DNA glitch that slightly changes their body structure and herd mentality. Caribou will fan out when fleeing, Reindeer stay herded up. Caribou are tall and leaner, Reindeer, short and stockier. Caribou are wild, Reindeer have been domestic before cats. Santa loves reindeer!
