Abstract

There is a Danish Christmas tune indicating that Santa can cause traffic hazards. The question is, however, whether there are other dangers associated with closer contacts to reindeers during Christmas. A literature search reveals a need for cautiousness, should one be tempted to try to get a glimpse of - or even to pad - Rudolph on the back on Christmas Eve.
