Reindeer


Zoo Park is just over two weeks until launch. Today’s animal A Day feature introduces you to the Reindeer, those creatures that pull Santa’s/ st Nick’s/ father Christmas’s etc sleigh.

Location: Cold Climate
Diet: Hebivore
Lifespan:  12 – 15 years in the wild
Interesting fact: Depending on the season, the reindeers hooves will adapt to change with the terrain. During the summer periods their footpads become sponge-like but in the windter they shrink and tighten to prevent the reindeer from slipping on Ice.

Here’s a video showing off the reindeer whilst telling you how they became the legendary creatures that pull santa’s sleigh
