A reindeer grows new antlers every year. The still growing, skin covered velvet antlers have traditionally been used to make reindeer antler powder, the very potent aphrodisiac. As autumn grows darker, the skin peels off revealing the hard and majestic antlers beneath. The strongest reindeer wears his antler crow with pride in the courtship games of autumn and defends his harem with such vehemence that leaves no doubt as to who rules the wilderness.
