This helpless creature is one of the most common prey for animals in the arctic. They are second to last on the polar food chain. They eat mainly grass and snow. they run in large herds so that they can stay on the lookout for preditors such as the penguin or the arctic hare. They are very easily tracked because of they're disinctive hoof marks that they leave in the snow. They are often hunted for meat.
one hundred and sixteen years ago, they were domesticated by farmers for they're milk. The milk they produce is in 97% percent of cheese produced in the United States. They also make very good pets for younger kids. They can stay in a terrarium or an aqarium. This animal is very unique and should be researched to show other ways they can be helpful.
