Reindeer ride

That looks like Prancer. Or Blitzen.

are reindeers native to Hokkaido ?

It's been a long day, old fella... Time to put your hoofs up, and have a cool one...

looks like it could do with fattening up and a nice warm cover in santa red

Where can I buy this chariot?

I thought it was a NK taxi!

If you let that reindeer free it will be dead in a week. Look at it!

Pretty tonakai there in Hokkaido! I thought it was a picture of Norway, where the Laplanders really love their reindeer!

Ahh, Niseko. Wish I could be there right now ...

Can you imagine what Santa Claus's reindeers go through?

....at the entrance to Hilton Niseko Village in Hokkaido.

Hilton? By the looks of that shack in the background, Hilton hotels have really let things go lately.

Poor reindeer. Agree with BlueWitch that this is complete animal cruelty.

Really not the best pic to start a cold, rainy Saturday. Feel so sad for the reindeer.

No thank you. I despise such "attractions". Imagine how many times that reindeer have to pull that Sled around every day? Humiliating Wild Animals like these at the expense of entertain Humans? Let the poor animal go back to his natural habitat. Heartbreaking as it is, this is nothing but Animal Cruelty, period.

awesome picture but reindeer looks weak and feeble.
