It's not Rudolph, but dang is he cute

FAIRBANKS, AK Workers discovered the 17-pound newborn calf Thursday at the University of Alaska Fairbanks research farm. The other 18 pregnant does are expected to give birth within a week or so.

The newcomers don't have names yet, but that'll soon change. The research program hosts an annual contest to name its new calves, with the winners receiving birth certificates for the reindeer they've named.

The facility experiments with feeding techniques to aid reindeer ranchers.
