How come you never hear anything about the 10th reindeer "Olive" ? Olive ? Yes, you know, "Olive the other reindeer, used to laugh and call him names"


Doubts are cast over Rudolf’s sexuality ! According to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, 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 Rudolf to Blitzen ... had to be a female. We should have known this when they were able to find their way.
