The black footed ferret is native to North Americaand are found in the Great Plains in states such as Montana, New Mexico, and Arizona. They used to be found in Arizona, Colorado, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas, Utah and Wyoming and portions of Canada and Mexico before becoming extinct in the wild.

Black footed ferrets live on prairie dog towns in the burrows of prairie dogs, sometimes of prairie dogs they have eaten. Ferrets do not dig their own burrows. Prairie dog burrows can be as much as 15 feet deep and 60 feet long and sometimes connect with other burrows.

Black-footed ferrets - once ranged over a large area across the Great Plains/Rocky Mountain states and 1 Canadian province and found on black-tailed prairie dog colonies across the Great Plains from southern Canada to northern Mexico, and on white-tailed and Gunnison's prairie dog colonies across the intermountain west. By 1986 they were completely gone from the wild. The black footed ferret have been successfully reintroduced to 15 locations in their former range in the states of Wyoming, Montana, South Dakota, Arizona, Utah, Colorado and Chihuahua, Mexico. There are approximately 50 ferrets exhibited in zoos across North America. Many zoos and several federal agency's visitor centers across North America have black-footed ferrets on display.

Black-footed ferrets are native to North America and used to range throughout the western U.S., west of the Mississippi river to the Rocky Mountains and north into Canada. Black-footed ferrets eat prairie dogs. Their population declined as prairie dog population declined from habitat destruction and disease. The ferrets are being re-introduced in their old range.

There are 19 black-footed ferret reintroduction sites that ferrets have been released to in the states of Wyoming, South Dakota, Montana, Arizona, Colorado, Utah, Kansas, New Mexico, Canada and Mexico.
