Mule deer are built for rugged country; sagebrush basins, rimrock, and mountain foothills. Their bodies are made for explosive power, clearing 7–8 feet vertically and bounding 20–30 feet in a single leap.
But fences can turn these strengths into risks. That’s why MDF works to remove and improve fencing so deer can move safely across the landscape. Learn more and support the work we do by becoming a member and contributing directly to these kinds of projects! https://muledeer.org/

The Mule Deer Foundation (MDF) is among the first grant award recipients for the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation's (NFWF) Grassland Resilience and Conservation Initiative!

MDF has been awarded $4 million to help improve the health and resilience of grasslands and grazing lands on priority landscapes in the Great Plains. We thank NFWF, McDonald's USA, the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service, and several McDonald’s USA beef and beverage suppliers for their financial contributions to the initiative that MDF will use to support our conservation efforts related to mule deer and wildlife habitat.

In an Outdoor Life article on the recent cougar culling project in Utah our Mule Deer Foundation (MDF) president and CEO provided a brief statement. MDF helped collar the deer who will be tracked and monitored as part of this project. Currently, we are supporting this study in hopes it provides key insights into mule deer populations, so we can work on habitat solutions to improve mule deer numbers in Utah and across the West. Habitat health is our top priority, but we recognize that in some instances predator management can play a valuable role in achieving better outcomes for wildlife.

For those of you that hunt Eastern MT & WY, and NE, SD & ND,..

MDF will implement conservation practices that deliver multiple benefits for wildlife and rural communities, including:

• Improved Habitat Quality: Restore native vegetation and water resources to support resilient populations of mule deer, pronghorn, sage-grouse, and grassland birds.

• Increased Connectivity: Improve animal movement rates through installing wildlife-friendly fencing and improving habitat corridors to facilitate movement and genetic exchange among wildlife populations.

• Sustainable Land Management: Integrate conservation practices with agricultural operations to ensure productive working lands that benefit both wildlife and ranching communities.

The Mule Deer Foundation received a $744,000 grant from the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation to expand habitat restoration and wildlife connectivity across the Northern Great Plains. The funding supports the Great Plains Initiative, which collaborates with private landowners and agencies to imp...

The Mule Deer Foundation helped fund this corridor project that will keep more herds on the landscape. This is a great example of how we allocate funds to go directly into habitat and conservation work! Read the full story from the wonderful folks at - link below!
