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 Rudolph to Blitzen- had to be a girl.
We should've known.
Only women would be able to drag a fat man in a red velvet
suit all around the world in one night and not get lost.
