Taxonomy
Rangifer fricki was named by Schultz and Howard (1935). Its type specimen is A.N.S.P. No. 13933, a partial skull (right maxillary fragment with dentition and right ramus), and it is a 3D body fossil. Its type locality is Burnet Cave, which is in a Pleistocene cave siltstone in New Mexico.
It was synonymized subjectively with Rangifer tarandus by Banfield (1961); it was recombined as Navahoceros fricki by Anderson and White (1975), Kurten (1975), Kurten and Anderson (1980), Webb (1992), Kuo et al. (2025).
