(CBS 58) -- The most famous reindeer of all will bring his shiny nose to CBS 58 on Monday, Nov. 27. 

See Rudolph and his reindeer peers help Santa Claus on a foggy Christmas Eve night.

The 1964 holiday classic, "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" will air on CBS Nov. 27 at 7 p.m.

To celebrate the excitement of Rudolph returning to television screens for another holiday season, CBS 58's Emerson Lehmann and photojournalist Scott Depuy decided to test some Milwaukeeans about their red-nosed reindeer knowledge.

Some struggled, as seen in this video:


At the Milwaukee County Zoo, Jennifer Diliberti says families should come and check out the reindeer, or caribou.

"Reindeer is a domesticated animal and the caribou is considered a wild animal," Diliberti explained. "We have a male and a female."

With the holiday lights display beginning this Friday, Diliberti says there's no better time for some zoo fun.

"It's really a nice time to come and visit, even if it's a little chilly," Diliberti added. "It's almost like you have the zoo to yourself."
