Lucky to spot a small herd on the way home

Near Glennallen Alaska my wife and I were treated to a small heard of Caribou / Reindeer. They were about 60 yards from the road and did not mind too much about having their photo taken.

It’s an amazing site to see them in the wild.

The reindeer, also known as the caribou in North America, is a species of deer with circumpolar distribution, native to Arctic, sub-Arctic, tundra, boreal and mountainous regions of northern Europe, Siberia and North America. This includes both sedentary and migratory populations.
