*** About Mule Deer: Mule deer, known scientifically as Odocoileus hemionus, are indigenous to western North America. This species is easily recognized by its large ears, which resemble those of a mule, and its black-tipped tail. Adapted to a wide range of habitats from dense forests to open plains, mule deer are crucial to their ecosystems, serving as prey for large predators and as browsers, helping to control vegetation growth. The presence of mule deer in Colorado showcases the state's rich biodiversity and the conservation efforts aimed at preserving such iconic species within their natural habitats.
