Christmas may be postponed for many people this year, but it has come early for the country’s most famous reindeer.
Despite a tough few months for Santa’s helpers, which has seen them miss much of the festive build-up, their future has been secured.
The Cairngorm Reindeer Herd looks after more than 150 free-range reindeer that live and roam across the Cairngorm Mountains and on the nearby Glenlivet Estate.
The herd was introduced to the mountains in 1952 by co-founders and husband and wife duo Mikel Utsi and Dr Ethel Lindgren before being taken over by Tilly Smith and her husband Alan in 1989.
