. “Reindeer” were present in Siberia and Central Europe from the Middle Pleistocene, about 650,000 years ago. The analysis of mtDNA revealed three main haplogroups, possibly representing three separate populations during the last glacial period. The main population lived in Siberia and Beringia and has contributed to the gene pool of all the extant subspecies. One small refugial population supposedly lived in Western Europe and the other in eastern North America. The word caribou derives from the Micmac Indian term “xalibu,” which means “pawer,” “shoveller,” in reference to the habit of digging snow for obtaining food. Taxonomists are not concordant on the number of subspecies. Here ten subspecies are recognized.

. Size dimorphism very variable. Males are on average 30-90% heavier than females. A medium to large-sized deer, with long neck, rump, and legs, and short ears and tail. The rhinarium is furred. Hooves are wide, crescentshaped and splayed; the dewclaws are relatively large and low, providing a large surface to support the body. Toe pads are spongelike in summer, tightened and sharp-edged in winter. Both sexes have an inflatable laryngeal air sac; it is larger in males. The coat is made of particularly dense hair, of variable color, from grayish-brown to white. Males have a well-developed neck mane. The coat of the newborn calf is unspotted. There are three main ecotypes: a large-bodied forest form, a medium-sized tundra form, and a small, short-legged, whitish high Arctic ecotype. Preorbital, nasal, tarsal, interdigital, and caudal glands are present. Permanent dentition is 34 teeth, with rudimentary upper canines. Molars erupt fom 4-26 months of age. Males bear large antlers 90-120 cm long, with flattened and multipointed brow and bez tines. Most females develop simple, light-weight antlers 30-45 cm long. Pedicles begin to grow very early, at 7-10 days of age, and the first set of antlers (a pair of spikes 10-40 cm long) begins to grow at just 4-6 weeks, finishes growing at about five months of age, and is cast off at 11-12 months. Adult bulls clean their antlers in September and cast them in November—January. The new antler set begins to grow 1-2 months later. Adult cows retain their antlers though the winter and cast them in March-May. The species has the largest relative antler mass, with bulls of 230-240 kg carrying up to

The main diet consists of lichens, moss, ferns, grasses, leaves, and shoots of shrubs and trees (especially willow and birch). Lichens are particularly important in winter. Occasionally they may also feed on animal matter such as lemmings, fish, and bird eggs. To reach ground lichens in winter they dig craters in the snow.

Most females first conceive at 28-29 months of age. In highly productive habitats, some female calves can attain puberty at about six months of age. Rutting season is in September—October. Females are polyestrous, with cycles of 18-19 days. During estrus they are receptive for 12-24 hours. In tundra conceptions are synchronized, with a 7-10 day peak; in woodland habitat they tend to be less synchronous. Tundra bulls form tending bonds within large mating aggregations. Woodland and high Arctic bulls tend to practice harem defense. During rut adult males lose as much as 20-25% of their weight. The gestation lenght is generally 221-237 days. The cow gives birth to a highly developed calf of 4-9 kg (2.5-3 kg in

), able to stand up one hour after birth and to follow its mother after 5-7 hours (precocial follower-type young). Calves are born with the ability to regulate body temperature. During the first days they nurse every 18 minutes. The milk is rich in fats and proteins. After one week the calf begins to eat lichens, at two weeks it doublesits weight, and at 4-5 months of age it is weaned. Bulls reach their full body weight at six years of age while cows attain adult size at four years. Senescence occurs at about 11-12 years of age. Normally they live to a maximum of 15-18 years. The maximum longevity in captivity is 22 years of age. Gray Wolves (Canis lupus), Wolverines (Gulo gulo), and Eurasian Lynxes (Lynx lynx) are the main predators. Juvenile mortality is high: Brown Bears (Ursus arctos), ravens, and eagles may prey on calves.

It is a highly gregarious species, particularly in open habitats. The basic social unit is the family group with females and calves. Males form small bands. Groups may coalesce in larger aggregations. Migratory Caribou can form impressive moving herds of 50,000-500,000. During migrations, 100,000 Caribou may move through an area of

In a recent survey of 58 major herds around the world, 34 were reported as declining, eight as increasing, and 16 had no trend data. The simultaneous decrease of many herds is coincident with and could be a result of global warming and human-induced landscape changes.
