Question - Where do reindeer live and sleep?
----------------------------------------
Reindeer live in the far northern forests and tundra of Europe and Asia.
People in those areas keep some reindeer as livestock, a little like cattle.
In Canada and Alaska the same animals are called caribou. Most large hoofed
animals sleep lying down in a sheltered place.
