Even in winter they can find grass and moss several metres under the snow it sounds paradoxical but the increased temperatures make it almost impossible for the reindeer to find food grave alexandersson explains the problem. Here we can see it very clearly. This is the ground here. The snow is very wet but the ground should be frozen. Its very easy right now to just stick your finger in there and touch soil in december. Thats far from normal. Then you think that when the last it becomes problematic for the animals when it gets colder the wet snow turns into a hard layer of ice and blocks access to the ground the reindeer can no longer reach the plants with their hooves.
