In the north of Finland you can see reindeers almost everywhere. The landscape in the north is open, spacious and peaceful. Beautiful nature offers many possibilities foe hiking in the mountains.
Reindeer fesses.
View towards the lake Kilpisjärve.
Some animals pay the price for human constructions. Sad but not so unusual happening along roads in the north.
Best regards from the north of Finland.

It's weird that in the shop at Kilpisjärvi, frozen deer meat is usually cheaper than frozen reindeer meat.
I agree. Reindeers are ubiquitous there. Deer has to be transported from the more forested areas in the south.
I suppose the deer has been shipped in frozen condition from some far-away country. Still a bit weird that the packaging is the same, the meat looks the same, it even taste the same, just the price tag that is different.
Reindeer meet is the best one, the price in not the most important :)
What a pity that the reindeer have so difficult to survive with people...
Probably in a mist just his not noticed?
And I liked the other photos very much.
Thank you @karja for sharing your new pictures.
Best wishes !
By the way, I've heard that British people dislike eating reindeer meat because to them it would be like eating Rudolf (the Rednose).
Thank you singa for commenting, where humans are makes trouble for wildlife and animals, always the same sad story.
Feeling sad seeing the last picture. Animals looks nice in forest not beside the roadside like lifeless. However, all the pictures are really nice. It's a combination of nature and animal. Good photography as well. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you dindar for nice comment.
Amazing animals. We only have the red deer and the European roe deer in the Czech Republic. I need to visit Scandinavia to see some reindeer and moose too :)

Takk for mange flotte bilde av reinsdyr @Karja
Spesielt det første av reinbukken var nydeleg.
Det er også trist at menneskeleg aktivitet i slike område fører med seg at enkelte reinsdyr må lata livet.
Med vennleg helsing
@Siggjo
Takk siggjo for hygglig kommentar, ja det er ritar at naturen altid må vike for menneskelig aktivitet :)
very unfortunate once the animal died of human .. I hope there are some people who want to solve the problem ..
Thank you Yanti for comments, Fencing helps but there is enormous areas to secure for prevent killing animals :)
now that's the main problem.
woow you got close, wonderful showcase sweety :D
Thank you dragon for nice commenting :)
We dont have reindeer, they are amazing and the males are spectacular.
Thank you sand for replying :)
Hermosos paisajes. Lamentablemente algo muy común ver animales muertos al costado de la carretera.
Gracias Piel por buena comentarios :)
