They don't. Muskox and caribou quite often don't even mix, and naturally avoid each other. And, since caribou are migratory animals and fast runners, they don't stop to graze for very long, unlike muskox. So there's no need to fight over one single plant when there are billions more to choose from and the herd to keep up with.

When food is hard to find musk ox and caribou might have some competition trying to get something to eat. Might be hard to find a musk ox fighting for a sedge with a caribou, though.
