Fazenda Intewales (base do Carmo)
We karyotyped 2 Akodon and 2 Delomys. Luis,
monitor from Intewales, Nani manager of the
lodging in Intewales, came to visit and
brought people to clean up The house! Luis
stayed overnight and was a nice break from
our same 4 people routine. Nani is new
at Intewales, is very friendly and was
totally helpful, asking if we needed any-
things.
20 July 1994
Luis stayed with us and this morning
walked up the Trail to check traps. Trapping
success is really going down. Today we caught
7 animals, plus 6 Akodon we released on Figuira
trail. I karyotyped 1 Orizony's and 1 Delomys.
Overall trapping success was
Day were sunny and warm till one
day before last, when a new cold
spill brought some rain. Trapping
success went down from 30 animals,
per day to less than 20, out of 190 trap.
Snaptraps seem to have a higher success.
We stopped using the ground meat + bacon
as bait because it was going bad and didn't
seem to be attracting animals that much.
