English term or phrase: reindeer ranch
Bonjour,

je traduis un texte qui se passe dans un "reindeer ranch" en Alaska (Williams reindeer ranch). Savez-vous si ce terme se traduit ou s'il se garde tel quel en français ?

Explanation:
Usually they breed raindeers and they sell them as pets... (I mean pets like horses) But in addition to that, some of them host groups or individuals/families wanting to share few days at the farm with reindeers and their calves, etc
