Onychomys leucogaster ranges over much of the Great Plains and the Great Basin in western North America, from southern Canada to northeast Mexico. It inhabits short-grass prairie, sagebrush steppe, pastures, and fields. This species comes in two colour phases, cinnamon and grey, although melanistic individuals also have been found. Unlike most rodents, Northern Grasshopper Mouse feeds primarily on invertebrates (grasshoppers, beetles, crickets, scorpions, etc.) and small vertebrates (e.g., rodents, snakes), while seeds constitute only a small part of its diet.
