Is venison the meat of a reindeer?

Venison refers to the meat of deer, a broad category that includes many species like:

* White-tailed deer (most common in North America)

* Mule deer

* Red deer

* Fallow deer

* Elk

Reindeer, also known as caribou, are a specific type of deer, primarily found in Arctic and subarctic regions. So, while reindeer meat is a type of venison, not all venison is from reindeer.
