Caribou

Caribou and reindeer share many similarities. After years of questioning, it has been concluded that reindeer are the domesticated species of the wild caribou. The wild caribou is larger than the reindeer. It stands between 4 and 5 feet at the shoulder and a full grown male may weigh up to 700 lbs. The thick, warm coat is comprised of a woolly undercoat with longer guard hairs. The colour of the fur ranges from white to black.MORE! [BM] {FW}
