## Caption

Male #reindeer begin to grow antlers in February, while females start in May. A male’s antlers typically drop off in November, but a female’s remain through #winter until their calves are born in the spring. If you’re following this logic, the presence of antlers in December means Santa's reindeer are all females. You go girls! #sdzJungleBells
