In many story’s people believe that Santa has rein deer pull his sleigh. However this is not true. Santa does not have reindeer pull his sleigh. He actually has Elk pull his sleigh. In all the childrens story’s they say reindeer, to keep the magic of Christmas alive. Because let’s be honest who has actually heard of reindeer. Elk sounds less magical. Irl. I Santa’s helping elf am here to say the famous “reindeer” are actually moody elk. Yes you heard that right the reindeer are in fact elk. Why people believe they are reindeer no one knows in all of the photos taken a animal expert would clearly be able to see that they are elk not reindeer. Elk actually have a redder hue which is clearly visible in all pictures opposed to the brown color of reindeer.
