Caribou

Caribou, also known as reindeer, are the only deer species in which both males and females grow antlers. These magnificent creatures can be found in the Arctic and sub-Arctic regions of North America and Eurasia. Their thick fur, broad hooves, and large antlers make them well adapted to survive in harsh and challenging environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does Caribou hunting stand out from other hunts?
