Reindeer is the only deer species of which both males and females possess antlers. They also lose and regrow their antlers every year.
Castrated male reindeer keep their antlers year round.
In Swedish Lapland most of the discarded reindeer antlers are left on the ground to decompose. This allows the calcium to return to the earth.
