As in nature, the reindeer from Schleich® Wild Life has a dense, long, gray-brown coat.
The reindeer is a deer that lives in large herds in the coldest regions of North America, northern Europe and northern Asia. In nature, the reindeer has bar-shaped antlers, like those of the Schleich® Wild Life reindeer. These are the only deer in which female reindeer also possess antlers. They are also distinguished by their hooves. They are very wide and move apart when the reindeer runs. They make a typical reindeer clack noise.
