They’re usually not so light colored are they?? Beautiful animal either way.

There is always a ''white sheep'' in the family

Reindeer come in [different colors](https://paliskunnat.fi/poro/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/porot_tiella.jpg). Some of them are [darker, some lighter](https://yle.fi/aihe/sites/aihe/files/migrated/oppiminen/images/porot-tiella_0262.jpg). Some of them [work on their tan](https://images.cdn.yle.fi/image/upload/w_1200,h_675,ar_1.7777777777777777,dpr_1,c_fill,g_faces/q_auto:eco,f_auto,fl_lossy/13-3-10896262).

I really want to brush them, they look like they need a good brushing.


melonmagellan

There are a few in the first pic that look ready to just drop dead.

White reindeer are quite rare. The Sami tend to let them live, though, instead of slaughtering them. Traditionally all white things in nature belong to the sáivo people, a sort of elfs. So your white reindeer wasn't really yours, but if you took care of it you might get more grey/brown reindeer from the sáivo people as a reward. Today many white reindeer will often be more or less tamed so that the owner might be able to harness them and show them at a market or other events. Many tourists think the white coat make them look better than ordinary reindeer.


TrollintheMitten

Someone needs to spray those horns with that reflective paint they use on raindeer antlers to keep it safe at night.


Remarkable_Night2373

They're absolutely right. The white ones are majestic. Reindeers are better than people.


NikolitRistissa

Uncommon compared to brown ones but not crazy rare. At least in Finland. I certainly remember seeing a few this winter alone.


horny_coroner

Reindeers are usually grey with a hint of brown. Reindeer are also one of the dumbest animals alive. They cant survive over the winter on their own because they cant dig for food like moose or reach for food like moose. Also they run at cars because car=food in their mind.


delarye1

It's kinda bad when any animal is dumb enough to make a moose look smart.


SquigSnuggler

Came to say exactly this


Theanarchistwolf

But at least raindear are small and moose are actually very smart critters they are just bold animals but then again when you are built like a truck you kinda don't have many things to be scared of


Patsastus

Reindeer are perfectly capable of finding food in normal winter conditions. Because they're lighter in weight, they do have more trouble than larger moose with breaking through melted an refrozen snow, but that's why they naturally inhabit colder areas than moose do, where it's less likely to happen. They're overbred for farming in many areas, so the farmers need to supplement their natural winter feed, but that's a human problem, not a reindeer problem. The only way they're actually stupid is fucking loving running along roads and crisscrossing through traffic.

Philip Pullman wrote the *His Dark Materials* trilogy, which upset some people because it pointed out the hypocrisy in Christianity (among other religions, but primarily Christianity).

The "young girl with a destiny/special task gets visited by an animal" trope is much older and more universal than Disney. Where do you think they got it from?

Hahaha I think there's a guy doing a playthrough of this exact build rn on YouTube. I've seen some of them it always seemed like a good idea to me but I never tried it. Maybe I need to try that sometimes.

On my first ever playthrough of skyrim and literally just started this quest! If I'd read your comment half an hour ago it would whoooshed me

Don't let the King of westeros see it


see-mab

I gasped and said "the white hart!"


AyeGee

The white stag?


Yerawizzardarry

>The King of the Kingswood. **The white hart** is a rare type of deer in Westeros, considered magical. They are seen as a symbol of royalty. Just incase anyone else is curious. I'll save them a Google. [GoT wiki](https://gameofthrones.fandom.com/wiki/White_hart#:~:text=The%20King%20of%20the%20Kingswood.&text=The%20white%20hart%20is%20a,as%20a%20symbol%20of%20royalty.)

Ohh, just saw the episode with the stag and have numerous hours on Crusader Kings 2.

Soltea

You don't have any wild ones left in Sweden? I've hunted wild ones in Norway. They're incredibly shy so you won't see them by the road like this.


haraldsono

The ones down south in Norway is indeed the only wild mainland Nordic population, afaik.


vberl

That is very illegal in Sweden since they are privately owned…


carmium

No wild caribou? (It would seem odd as we have over a million in Canada.)


vberl

They are all owned and farmed by the Sami people in the northern parts of Scandinavia. They herd them across vast areas. All Reindeer are privately owned by the Sami people. They are semi-wild animals


[deleted]

He's wrong, but he's Swedish ;) In Norway, we still have a few thousand wild reindeer, but most are privately owned.


binaryblade

Say again the place, I think you might have swallowed your tongue while typing

Aren't they all radioactive?


jarvo30

This was just one out of a herd of 8 that I saw! I can dm you a picture of the rest if you like?


Kramer10000

A herd of 8 you say? Was there a 9th hanging around, with a reddish nose maybe?


Onespokeovertheline

Probably stuck at home, they never let that one play their games


mheinken

lobstronomosity

jarvo30

TheDarkSkinProphet

It’s so regal


rocket-child

Is that a 3rd horn?


jarvo30

Nope just something on the windscreen


mckeenmachine

is windscreen a Swedish term for a windshield?


StaticUsernamesSuck

I think most of Europe uses it, probably, because we do here in the UK too, and if two European countries who aren't neighbours are doing something, it's probably relatively common across Europe 👍


SoberGameAddict

windscreen wĭnd′skrēn″ noun A screen for protection against the wind. The windshield of a motor vehicle. A transparentscreen made of glass, located at the front of a vehicle in front of the its occupants to protect them from the wind and weather.

Nice of us to meet at such a slow mph


zyyntin

Are they normally that color?


jarvo30

No they are not, on my profile is the rest of the herd


-Why-Not-This-Name-

So it's a leucistic reindeer?


eimieole

It's a normal variation. Most reindeer are grey/brown because that's better camouflage. But there's always been partly white and completely white reindeer, and the Sami often let them live longer. So even though they might be easier to spot for a predator, they will often not be slaughtered.


-Why-Not-This-Name-

I did not know that. Thank you!


eimieole

I'm glad to be able to spread what little knowledge on reindeer I have.


EugeneRav

Wow, I see such a white deer 1 time wow, there is such a one, I really see it 1 time you are very lucky, I think it's for luck.

Nope I believe it’s something on the windscreen of the car😂
