All 3000 of NWT's reindeer have gone missing.

ObDisclaimer: Hundreds of them have since been found.

I thought reindeer and caribou were the same thing?

Pretty much. Reindeer, specifically, are the semi-domesticated ones from Scandanavia.

Think of it like wolves and dogs.

ahh, so I guess I will get my kids a reindeer instead of a caribou. I wouldn't want anyone to get eaten.

Thanks!
