Vive en diferentes ecosistemas de América, desde los canadienses, en la región subártica, pasando por los bosques secos de las laderas montañosas de México, las selvas húmedas tropicales de América Central y del Sur, hasta los bosques secos ecuatoriales del norte del Perú y otras áreas boscosas sudamericanas. Se alimenta de arbustos y hierbas. Es muy perseguido por los cazadores en toda su área de distribución, pero no se considera en riesgo. En algunas regiones sus poblaciones han aumentado debido a la escasez de depredadores. El 28 de junio de 1993 el Congreso Nacional de la República de Honduras instituyó al venado de cola blanca como símbolo nacional de la fauna de este país. Así mismo, Odocoileus virginianus fue declarado símbolo patrio de la República de Costa Rica el 2 de mayo de 1995.
