Chorus
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer,
Had a very shiny nose.
And if u ever saw it,
U would even say it glows.
All of the other reindeer,
Used to laugh and call him names.
And they never let poor Rudolph,
Join in any reindeer games.
Then one foggy Christamas eve,
Santa came to say.
"Rudolph with your nose so bright
Wont you guide my sleigh tonight."
Then how the reindeer loved him,
As they shouted out with glee.
"Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer,
You'll go down in history."

Do caribou have to live in grassland?
Caribou do not reside in a desert of any kind. The conditions of a hot desert are too strenuous since it has a shaggy coat, there is extreme heat, little plant life flourishes in a desert, and since there is little water. Additionally, a caribou cannot live in a cold desert such as in the Arctic. Again there are unfavorable conditions as the cold is too extreme, there is no vegetation, and water is scarce in a liquid form.
Do Woodland Caribou lay eggs or have live babies?
Woodland caribou give live birth, they do not lay eggs.
The Mule deer population in the west has been declining for the pst few decades,and is declining because of:
Predators:
There have been a LOT of preadators preying on deer, and the Forest Service is trying to manage the predators more sufficiently.
Habitat Loss:
The whole stop-burning-the-forests thing has been really hurting the Mule deers' habitat, and has allowed dead trees to over-crowd forests. Then, when a fire does burn down forests full of dead trees, and fire fuel, the fires is more devistating, and burns hotter, causing lots of damage to the deer and their food source.
These are only a few things contributing to the curent deer decline. If you want to learn more, go to the related link.

Yes. Deer eat peanuts. I live in South Georgia. Farmers grow peanuts here every year, and they always have a hard time with deer eating their crops.
