It’s fake, but honestly I don’t know why they bothered, the real thing is cool too.

Also, spoiler from the source:

Unfortunately, this "glow-in-the-dark antlers" plan didn't really reduce the number of reindeer deaths from traffic accidents

Ya I mean, I usually can’t see wildlife whether they’re glowing or not until they’ve jumped out of the woods and are two feet from my vehicle. I can’t see glow in the dark antlers through ten foot tall brush and trees.

I am sorry, I didn't know this.

Does it really reflect that much? Because I've used such sprays, and they don't reflect like a retroreflector (like it seems in the picture).

Cool idea though.

Aren't they just going to shed those soon enough?
