Guinea pig - Don you say they run across the road at ce Bajada on the road to Camallo, which is about 10 miles south of here. We saw no sign of them here. Foti - The locals catch them and sell the skins. We found a skinned carcass on the dump. Sharkle + barrow - no sign Mara - no sign Pigails - caught Honnoreta geckos under cardboard on grid. Elsewhere Pristidactylus (in mouse trap in cortadera) and Polanatus libroni and rothi everywhere. The rabbit-sheep excluded in Cortador Bongo was lush and dense, with dodeodrons, thick grass, etc. Lots of old runways, no cutting or droppings. Barely field of mice sometimes. nov. 27 Barlocho. Sunny, no wind. Drove to top of Cerro Otto to look for trapping possibilities. Gorgeous lunge longa on the east side of the ridge right up to the top. West slope is open asarena etc but can see remains of old loops cut or burned 50 or more years ago; no re-seeding. nov. 28 morning sunny, then clouded over. Put about 90 traps at 75 on top of Cerro Otto at 6 pm, with Felipe Valverde, Bilboa Daniel Alfonso, and student Viviana. Half MS and calf blancom. About half of them in povo maturo larga spread, 1/4 in open stuffle, and 1/4 in edge of longa albalparada
