| definition: |
A caribou is a kind of deer. Caribou have long legs and a long neck. They live in very cold parts of North America, mostly in Canada and Alaska. A caribou is really the same as a reindeer, but caribou is the name people use for reindeer that live wild in North America.
I learned something interesting about caribou. Usually, only male deer have antlers, but caribou are different. Female caribou have antlers too.
