Claim: Photo of a reindeers' antlers with reflective paint in Finland.
Fact-check: This photo of a reindeer with glowing antlers is an artwork inspired from Finland - FACTLY
Verdict: the photo is not real, it is an artwork by an instagram user named, @vasjenkatro. the artist's rendering was inspired from finland's idea of painting reindeers' antlers, so they are not hit by cars at night. in 2014, the finnish reindeer herders association started to coat the antlers with reflective paint to prevent frequent accidents involving reindeer. hence the claim made in the post is misleading.
