The elk is located 50 meters above the reindeer. It is 41 cm long and 36 cm high and is located on a rock slope. It was discovered in the 1990s by archaeology students. [7] [11] [12] The bear is around half a meter tall and a meter wide. It is located 20 metres from the reindeer on a vertical rock face. The bear was discovered c. 1970. [7] [13 ...
Deer bred for hunting on farms are selected based on the size of the antlers. [43] Hunters have developed terms for antler parts: beam, palm, brow, bez or bay, trez or tray, royal, and surroyal. These are the main shaft, flattened center, first tine, second tine, third tine, fourth tine, and fifth or higher tines, respectively. [44]
Greenland reindeer, formerly recognized as a full species, [85] are the most genetically divergent of all caribou and reindeer, with an average genetic distance (FST) of 44%. [86] Unlike barren-ground caribou, they have a harem-defense mating system, migrate only short (< 60 km) distances if at all, and lack the rutting and post-calving ...

See Evolution in main page, Reindeer.Following are excerpts relating to boreal woodland caribou. Reindeer originated in a Late Pliocene North American-Beringian radiation of New World deer [Geist 1998). A frontoparietal skull fragment of Rangifer sp. from the Early Pleistocene of Omsk, Russia dates back to 2.1-1.8 Ma and suggests northern Eurasia as a center of reindeer o
This clustering and PCA analysis omitted Greenland and Svalbard reindeer, which were too different genetically to be included in the analysis (Yannic et al. 2013) [34] These considerations led to the renaming of the Finnish forest reindeer as a full species Rangifer fennicus Lönnberg, 1909, in a recent revision by a single author, something ...
