Reindeer

Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid Donner (or Donder), Blitzen. Those eight have been pulling Santa's sleigh for about 600 yrars.

Rudolph is a relative newcomer. He's been leading the sleigh since only 1925.

Antlers on deer are bonematerial - During growth they are covered with a skin that helps provide blood and thus nutrients to the antler.

When the antler growth stops due to testosterone-levles rising in the animal, the skin is rubbed off - therewith creating the colorization and "staining" of the antler.

want to hear a poem

A reindeer for Christmas

Dear Santa, this Christmas my list is quite small.

fact, I need practically nothing at all.

My list is so short and so easy to read

because there's just one thing I actually need.

A reindeer for Christmas is all I require;

a reindeer, of course, who's an excellent flier.

I really don't care if it's Dasher or Dancer.

I'm okay with Cupid or Comet or Prancer.

Please don't think I'm greedy; I only want one.

You won't even miss him, and I'll have such fun.

I promise I'll feed him and treat him just right,

and take him out flying around every night.

You see, I'm not selfish. So, for my surprise

this Christmas, please bring me a reindeer that flies.

But if my request is a bit much for you,

I guess that an iPad3 or something will just have to do.

did you know

reindeer bulls are 3-4 ft high at the shoulder and can weigh up to 400 lbs. The cows are slightly smaller

Rudolph. Because he is the one who lights up and guard the sleigh with his nose. :)

Sam the Snowman, the narrator of the Rudolph story. He was voiced by Burl Ives.

Santa might die if we stop in believe in him. he's like 1 billion years old.

As long as one person remembers him or even just reads about him in a book then he is in no danger at all. Besides, he has a great network of Secret Agents to help him. Who Knows? There may be one living on your street!

Vixen. There is an animal called a vixen.

Since reindeer have hooves, the tracks would most likely look like deer prints.

Reindeer have cloven hooves (split into two toes).

The usual listing is that given in the poem "A Visit from St. Nicholas". In the poem, Santa exhorts eight reindeer by name, the list being:Now Dasher! Now Dancer! Now Prancer and Vixen!

On Comet! On Cupid! On Donner and Blitzen!

I don't know why Moore (the poem's author) chose those specific names, but choose them he did, and they've been traditional since.

(Donner and Blitzen are Germanic names meaning respectively "Thunder" and "Lightning", if you've ever wondered.)

The most popular addition to the canon came in 1939, when Robert May came up with a coloring book for Sears to give away entitled "Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer." Since then, Rudolph is usually listed as the "ninth reindeer" (or first, since he supposedly occupies the lead position).

No. There are many animals that cannot eat chocolate due to the theobromine content.

Downhill ski poles...oh how they are often misused in skiing. The purpose of your ski poles is to help provide balance. However, you don't lean on the them or rely on them too much. Ski balance should originate from your core abdominal muscles, buttocks, and legs. How you place your shoulders while skiing makes a difference as well. You want to keep your shoulders square to the hill or in other words, facing the bottom of the hill. You plant your ski pole as you are initiating a turn. You plant one ski pole at a time. For example, you plant your left ski pole as you are turning to the left. And vice versa - you plant your right ski pole as you are turning to the right. Do not lift your ski pole high in the air. This is a waste of time and energy. Instead quickly and smoothly plant it into the ground and remove it at the completion of your turn.

Rangifer Tarandus

i think the answer was pretty good i do agree that teenagers (young people) do spend their time indoors playing psp or nindendo ds and all those elecronic games mostly they watch tv.

Usually you would find reindeer around the arctic circle, Scandinavia. :D

Honey, water & yeast. to make it, bring 1 pot of water to a rolling boil. Add the honey(1 or 2 cups), keep it a a rolling boil, then add the yeast. After 30 mins of low boiling, cool it down. Then put it into a big jug(use a carbonized to make it hard), wait a month or two depending on the proof you want. then you can bottle it and enjoy. p.s. you'll want to sanatize EVERYTHING that you are using before you begin.

Female sheep are also known as ewes at times

Robert L. May created the song; Johnny Marks adapted it for song.

However, it is Harry Brannon and Gene Autry who both sang the song and made it famous, the former on the radio and the latter officially recording it.

Sam the Snowman played the banjo.
