Word of the Day: Caribou
Canada has caribou, lots and lots of them.
You may say, ‘So what?’ But before you do, remember that this is Christmas Eve, which means Santa Claus and eight tiny reindeer will soon be flying around the world.
Caribou is another name for reindeer.
Many people in Canada hunt caribou for food, but they don’t hunt Santa’s reindeer – Santa has a magical reindeer that can fly.
What would happen if a hunter tried to hunt one of Santa’s reindeer/caribou?
There’d be no more presents, that’s for sure, so it’s safe to say that Santa’s reindeer will be perfectly OK this Christmas Eve.
