How far do reindeer migrate?

Reindeer in Norway migrate from the forest where they spend the winters forraging for lichen and mosses beneath up to four feet of snow. In early spring, when the snow begins to melt - especially close to rivers and tarns, where new grasses provide protein rich foods - mosquitos, warble flies and a host of other insects emerge. Warble flies bore into the reindeers' skin and lay their eggs there. In the early spring, the larvae begin to hatch - which is extremely painful. These, together with all the other insects drive the reindeer to distraction and that is when they begin to migrate to the mountains and the northern coast of Norway. In the autumn, after the rut, the reindeer migrate back to the forests for the winter. The Sami reindeer herders are only semi-nomadic. Most do not own reindeer and live in the cities and towns. Those that do travel in groups with their herds, which are driven along specific routes to avoid congestion.

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."

(Repeat from the Chorus)
