The mule deer, while closely related to the white-tailed deer, are distinct in many of their attributes. Mule deer are usually a dark grey-brown, with a small white rump patch and a small, black tipped tail. The tail is thin and drooped, unlike the uplifted, bushy white tail of its cousin. The ears of mule deer are proportionately much longer than those of whitetail deer.
