Caribou, or Reindeer, is the only deer species in which both males and females have candelabra-like antlers. They live in large, migratory herds along the tree line of northern forests, eating mostly grass-like plants and shrubs in summer, and lichen, which carpets the snow-covered forests, in the winter. Learn more about the Rangifer tarandus, more commonly known as a Caribou, in this easy-to-read species overview by the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History.
