When was Rudolph created?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It was broadcast for the first time in 1964. It was slightly modified in 1965, because the producers didn't show Santa stopping at the Island of Misfit Toys to pick them up, and a massive write-in campaign (of watchers taken with the adorable Misfit Toys) prompted them to add the scene when Santa comes to pick them up.

Did all of santas reindeers have antlers?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Analysis: If we're really going to let science be our guide in this matter, the first thing we have to admit is that reindeer don't fly, let alone haul a jolly fat elf around in an airborne sleigh. And if we start down that slippery slope, there's only one conclusion we can possibly reach: Santa Claus doesn't exist. That way lies madness.
But there is a loophole.
It is a fact, reindeer experts say, that both the male and female of the species have antlers. It is also a fact that while most cows retain their antlers until spring, most bulls drop their antlers by early December. Which is worrisome, I know, but the key word is most.
The experts go on to explain that some younger bulls, depending upon hereditary and environmental factors, may keep their antlers well into spring --- even as late as April.
So it is plausible to suppose that if, for the sake of argument, there were a Santa Claus, and if, for the sake of argument, he did circumnavigate the globe in a reindeer-powered sleigh every December 25th, then at least some of those reindeer --- including one in particular with a shiny, red nose --- could be males.
Chalk one up for tradition, if just barely.
