I shot a mulie/whitetail hybrid in CO (verified by a tissue sample taken by the CO DOW) about 25 years ago. So that cross breed is possible but I don't think they would cross with axis. Taking to biologists it’s typically a whitetail buck breeding a Muley doe. I ran across a herd of mule deer does in west Texas that had a single WT doe that hung with them. Apparently she had for years. I was always curious if a muley buck ever bred her successfully?
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

not sure about the whitetail and exotic crosses, but had a landowner tell me I killed a red deer hind that was a cross with another exotic on the ranch
