Habitat:

Only found on the western Great Plains, in the Rocky Mountains, in the United States southwest, and on the West Coast of North America. Mule deer have also been introduced to Argentina and Kauai, Hawaii. Prefer open grasslands and perk-lands, or forest edge ecosystems, but can range from desert scrub land in the south to boreal forests and sub-arctic woodlands in north.
