"Reindeer noses may not glow red, but these creatures of cold climes have
evolved the ability to change the color of their eyes to help them thrive in
dark, northern winters. In this Discovery episode, we speak with Glen Jeffery,
a professor of neuroscience at the Institute of Opthamology at UCL (University
College London) in the U.K. about what makes reindeer eyes truly unique in the
animal kingdom."
