May 12 Set 50 traps last night at a location: El Roble, 8 mi. NE Tepetitlan de Morelos, Jalisco. This is on the old road from Guadalajara to Aguascalientes.

The country was very dry and prospects did not look good. This morning I got 2 & Peromyscus boylii in my traps. Last night I discovered a Mephitis macroura rooting with his head under a nopal cactus.
