Question

how reindeer survive in the harsh climate and what they eat ?​

Answer 1

Reindeer are herbivores, which means they only eat vegetation. Their diet can include herbs, ferns, mosses, grasses, shoots, fungi and leaves. On average, an adult reindeer eats around 9 to 18 lbs. (4 to 8 kg) of vegetation a day, according to the San Diego Zoo.

Answer 2

Answer:

In the summer months reindeer eat sedges, grasses, herbs, ferns and mosses on the tundra. They will also eat shoots and leaves of trees when available being particularly fond of willow and birch. They have been recorded as being opportunistic carnivores eating lemmings, birds eggs and arctic char (fish).

Explanation:

Reindeer live in areas of Arctic tundra (a cold treeless plain, frequently poorly drained) and the northern boreal forests that make up the southern edge of the tundra. They are herbivores and ruminants meaning they feed on plant material which they ferment with bacteria in a large intestinal chamber called the rumen which is then regurgitated to be chewed again (chewing the cud) before passing further down the intestines.
