Second deer tag

I'm wanting to hunt whitetails this year in Northern Idaho. I'd also like to hunt Mule deer in Southeast Idaho. If I don't kill a mule deer and buy a whitetail only tag. Could the mule deer tag be used as my second tag in Northern Idaho . I plan on going around Thanksgiving
Answer: 
Deer hunters may choose either a regular or general deer tag or a white-tailed deer tag. The regular deer tag is valid for any hunt listed under “2014 Regular Deer Tag Seasons” on pages 15-19 and may be used to take a mule deer or white-tailed deer during those seasons. The white-tailed deer tag is valid for white-tailed deer only, for any hunt listed under “2014 White-tailed Deer Tag Seasons” on pages 21-24. Depending on the unit, you may be restricted to antlered white-tailed deer using the general deer tag.
