Reindeer, also known as caribou in North America, have been alive for millions of years, with their ancestors dating back to around 2.5 million years ago during the Pleistocene epoch. They are part of the Cervidae family, which includes deer species that have existed for about 20 million years. The modern reindeer species, Rangifer tarandus, is believed to have evolved around 1 million years ago.
