The Mule Deer is a North American deer that is closely related to the White-tailed Deer. They are named for their large ears, which look a bit like those of a mule. The Mule Deer is the smallest deer in North America, and they are typically about 3 feet tall at the shoulder and weigh around 100 pounds.

Mule Deer live in western North America in a variety of habitats, including forests, woodlands, brushlands, and grasslands. They eat a variety of things, including leaves, twigs, shoots, berries, grasses, and plants.
