Right Turn: Rare sighting of Macareindeer captured on video before holidays

by | Dec 23, 2016

Our story begins in a wondrous land called Torona, far from the North Pole, where mythical creatures – half human, half reindeer – have dedicated their adult years to the admirable pursuit of helping to treat patients around the world with “regenerative medicines,” whether they’ve been naughty or nice.

When they aren’t busy with their mission of creating new companies, devising better ways to manufacture cells and figuring out how to make friends with others like them the world over, they dance. And then they dance some more. Between trying to revolutionize treatments for degenerative diseases through the development and commercialization of cell-based products and therapies, and dancing, they have time for little else. Occasionally they binge watch a Netflix series while eating certain types of lichen that grow in sub-arctic climates.

Although their exact location is kept secret due to the nature of their important work, we have managed to capture video evidence of their existence. Be warned that their dancing could be considered NSFW (not suitable for work). This herd of Macareindeer are of the ccrm species. For identification purposes, they have been named as follows: standing: Kim Warren, Jen Moody and Nick Timmins; kneeling: Michael Israels and Michael May. They, along with the rest of their ccrm herd mates – not shown here – wish you Happy Holidays and all the best in 2017.
