Probably chaos.

I think normally horses wear that kind of mask to protect them from further bug bites in the face.
Hey, perhaps Santa’s reindeer can fly because they were parasitized by radioactive reindeer warble flies (Hypoderma tarandi) created by Russian nuclear experiments in the Arctic. Rudolph just happens to have the red glowing boil located on his nose, which is aesthetically more awkward.
