At the plane crash site, one lone survivor sat with his back against
a tree, chewing on a bone. As he tossed the bone onto a huge pile of
bones, he noticed the rescue team. "Thank Heavens!", he cried out in
relief..... "I am saved!"
The rescue team did not move, as they were in shock, seeing the pile
of human bones beside this lone survivor. Obviously he had eaten his
comrades. The Survivor saw the horror in their faces and hung his own
head in shame. "You can't judge me for this," he insisted. "I had to
survive. Is it so wrong to want to live?"
The leader of the rescue team stepped forward, shaking his head in
disbelief. "I won't judge you for doing what was necessary to
survive, but Good Heavens, man, your plane only went down yesterday!"

According to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, while both
male and female reindeer grow antlers in the summer each year
(the only members of the deer family, Cervidae, to have females
do so), 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 Rudolf
to Blitzen........had to be a female.
We should've known this when they were able
to find their way.
