  1. Reindeer noses really do glow red

Whilst not all reindeer are called Rudolf, their noses really do glow red. Their noses are full of blood vessels in a very unique structure which warm up the cold air they inhale. This keeps the reindeers warm on the days where the air temperature can drop to -40 degrees Celsius in their native habitats in Siberia, North America and the Arctic.
