Description: The Peary caribou (Rangifer tarandus pearyi) is the northernmost subspecies of caribou. It lives on the islands of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago and is the smallest subspecies of living caribou. The Peary caribou's coat changes color with the season. In the winter, the coat is white to blend with the snowy habitat. The summer coat is slate gray with white underparts.

The habitat of the Peary caribou is treeless. In the summer, the caribou forage in moist areas such as the slopes of river valleys and upland plains for grasses, sedges, and willows. The caribou forage in higher areas in the winter where the snow is thinner and easier to dig through.
