Hopper Brothers Christmas Reindeer

This is the last week to see the reindeer in Arroyo Grande. They'll be moving on Monday to Santa Maria, so is you're in South County - be sure to stop by this week through Sunday, anytime between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m.

When you go to visit the reindeer, be sure to listen to their walk - do you hear clicking? Turns out that tendons snap across a bone in the foot, producing a clicking sound as Reindeer walk. It's thought that this helps them find one another in snow storms. But the young ones don't make this sound, keeping them protected against predators.

Yukon is settling into his temporary home in Arroyo Grande. His hooves are amazing! You can see him daily between 9 and 9, at Hwy 101 and Oak Park through Dec. 4th.
