According to the Alaska
Department of Fish and Game,which makes this post "fishing related", while
both male and female reindeer grow antlers in the summer each year, male
reindeer drop their antlers at the beginning of winter, usually late November
to mid-December. Female reindeer retain their antlers till after they give
birth in the spring. Therefore, according to every historical rendition
depicting Santa's reindeer, every single one of them, from Rudolph to Blitzen,
had to be a girl. We should've known. Only women, while pregnant, would
be able to drag a fat man in a red velvet suit all around the world in
one night and not get lost.
