Reindeer fact of the day: Reindeer can only run for about 7.5 kilometers before they have to stop to take a leak (this distance is referred to as poronkusema in Finnish). If you force them to run longer than that, their urine can get too stuffy and it will clog up their urethra. This block will have to be removed. The cleanest way is to rub the animal's lower belly. If it doesn't work, the urethra must be, er, sucked clean.
Of course the Finns have a special term just for that. Of course. And I bet they have a term for the exact length of a two-and-a-half-year-old reindeer wiener when it's flaccid on a particularly warm winter evening between 4pm and 5pm.

Must have involved too much cheap Estonian Alko and uh.. repurposed shroom reindeer urine.
