About
The woodland caribou is a North American reindeer subspecies that stands shoulder-high to an adult human.
This forest-dwelling subspecies is generally larger and darker than barren-ground caribou. Adult bulls are noticeably heavier than cows, carrying extra bulk and larger antlers into the autumn rut. Their large, crescent-shaped hooves spread their substantial weight across soft snow and marshy peat, keeping them from sinking.
From Wikipedia
The boreal woodland caribou, also known as Eastern woodland caribou, boreal forest caribou and forest-dwelling caribou, is a North American subspecies of reindeer found primarily in Canada with small populations in the United States. Unlike the Porcupine caribou and barren-ground caribou, boreal woodland caribou are primarily sedentary.
