Forest Reindeer

Known for their resilience in cold climates, forest reindeer are a testament to nature's adaptability. In zoos, their enclosures are designed to replicate their snowy habitats, complete with chilled water features and shaded resting areas.

One reindeer, named Frost, became a star during the holiday season. Each year, he participated in a "reindeer parade," donning festive decorations and delighting children who visited to hear stories about Santa's sleigh team. Frost's gentle nature made him a favorite, and he became a symbol of winter magic at the zoo. Behind the scenes, zookeepers ensured Frost and his herd received extra care during the festivities, including special treats like moss and berries.
