#WildlifeWednesday this week should be no surprise to anyone… Reindeer (also known as caribou) are not just skilled in pulling sleighs. With big hooves designed for paddling and hollow hair for buoyancy, reindeer are surprisingly excellent swimmers! Their large, concave hooves also provide crucial support in deep winter snow and on the soft tundra.🦌❄️ #Reindeer #HolidaySeason #NationalParkService #Alaska #GatesOfTheArctic 📸: NationalParkService Images: Caribou running in gatesofthearcticnp
