Drone captures stunning footage of a giant reindeer ‘cyclone’ in the Arctic Circle that makes it impossible for predators to target an individual in the herd
The Daily Mail ^ | 02 Apr 2021 | Dan Avery

Photographer Lev Fedoseyev filmed a reindeer herd stampeding in a massive spiral in northwest Russia The deer run in a ring when threatened, putting does and fawns in the center, to confuse predators This herd, in Murmansk, was spooked by a veterinarian trying to give them their anthrax vaccinations Reindeer can run 50 miles per hour and, in spring, are known to form 'super-herds' of up to 500,000

It is 2021. The writer missed the chance for more drama by calling this a Reindeer Vortex.

I did, at 18 I drove from Germany to Paris by way of Amsterdam. At the time I noted nearly every vehicle on the streets of Paris had damage to one degree or another.

Replace the width/height to a percentage (you only need 1 or the other, not both).

If you do it this way, it will adjust to the person’s (viewing it) monitor.

For example, -— src=”http://www.somepicaddress.com/picname.png” width=60% -— (where the 60% is the width of the viewer’s monitor, and the height will automatically adjust).

This is how I do mine, but sometimes, I need to make an adjustment to the percentage if the original is from a small pic and starts pixelating (or the pic isn’t needed to be that large).

((btw, the above address is obviously not real ;) ))

“How you supposed to vaccinate a super-herd of 500,000 stampeding deer?”

Very carefully.

This is it at 60%... (I added the border, you don't need that)





Also, you never have to worry about oversizing a pic on FReeper's phones or small monitors (laptops). If you use 100%, it will always match up with the viewer's device at 100% of their screen and not go past the screen size (although, I don't recommend going 100%.. ;^D

I forgot to mention, I recommend you to use width, not height! :D

LOL is true
BTW Don’t go around telling people details of your own health record. Unless you want it out on the interwebz for who-knows-who to see.

Had my first “Reindeer Stew” for midsummer holiday in Northern Finland last year. Tasted real good.

How can an animal that tastes so good be so plentiful? “Rudolph Stew” anyone?

I’m telling the grandkids the reindeer are practicing for Santa in case one of his reindeer has a sore foot :)
