108 Wildlife
Deer
The 108 Mile Ranch area in British Columbia is home to mule deer, a species known for its distinctive large ears and forked antlers. These deer are adaptable and thrive in the diverse habitats of the region, often found in forested areas, meadows, and near water sources. Mule deer are generally active during the morning and late afternoon, making them a common sight for nature enthusiasts. Their graceful movements and striking make them a cherished part of the local wildlife.
​
Mule deer typically give birth to their young in late spring, usually between May and June This timing allows the fawns to benefit from the abundance of vegetation available during the warm months. The mother seeks secluded areas to ensure the safety and comfort of her newborns. Fawns are usually able to stand and shortly after birth, which helps them keep up with their mothers as they move to safer locations.
