Reindeer are herbivores and eat lichen, a kind of moss that grows on rocks, and some native grasses and shrubbery that grows on the tundra. The tundra is

located up by the polar regions called the Arctic Circle, and is one of the coldest areas on Earth. There is very little in the way of food up there, so the reindeer will eat what is available and move on when food runs out.
