J.R. Alcorn 1943 Itinerary 3 mi. NNW Patzcuaro, 6700 ft., Michoacan Monday Sunday March 7, 1943. Visited the traps this morning and found about 50 of them had been stolen by someone. We all traveled along the highway to a point 5 miles south of Patzcuaro and here we I set out traps along a pole fence and around the edge of a corn field. Many gopher mounds were seen in this vicinity Monday March 8, 1943. This morning I found many small mammals in the traps that were set near the fence. Few were taken along the edge of the corn field. Shunk traps are abundant in all localities. I set eight traps for shunks along near the road.
