Might seem like an unnecessary thing to do, but apparently castrating male reindeer helps keep the Arctic a happy place, because if not male reindeer would be fighting each other all the time instead of helping each other dig up the snow and expose the ground for them to graze.

Still, pretty shocking to see this dude use his TEETH to castrate this reindeer, although it’s apparently ‘less severe than modern methods’ (which I’m not too sure is true):

No anaesthetic or anything either? Jesus.

Give us chemical castration any day.
