    How to choose a racing reindeer - and then persuade it to race
The reindeer selected to race need to be wild, strong - and a little bit crazy. Persuading them to race takes experience and a particular kind of negotiation. Anssi Lakela, part-time deer herder and tour guide, and Anne Ollila, from the Reindeer Herder Association, share reindeer psychology with presenter Cathy FitzGerald.
