The '''reindeer''' (''Rangifer tarandus'') is a species of [[deer]] of the family Cervidae, and found in the [[Arctic]] regions of [[North America]] and [[Eurasia]].  Reindeer are unique from other species of deer in that both sexes bear antlers.  Reindeer are domesticated in [[Scandinavia]] by the [[Sami]] people, also known as the Lapps, and used for pulling sleds and carriages, as well as providing meat and milk for sustenance.  In North America they are known as '''caribou''' by the [[Inuit]].
