- Caribou, also called reindeer, are found in northern regions of North America, Europe, Asia, and Greenland.
As summer approaches, caribou herds head north in one of the world's great large-animal migrations. They may travel more than 600 miles (965 kilometers) along well trod annual routes. At the end of their journey, they spend the summer feeding on the abundant grasses and plants of the tundra. In these rich grounds, an adult caribou can eat 12 pounds (5 kilograms) of food each day.
During migration, herds of cows (female caribou) leave several weeks before the males, who follow with yearling calves from the previous birthing season. | |
