mostrangai, meika A. 1992 journal 4 Fazenda Intervaler - SP Brazil In the afternoon we set 22 Tomahawns and 38 Shermans on Figueira Trail. The 2 traps by the Carmo River were open, w/ food. 20 July (Mon) Tomahawns by the river empty again. It's a bit surprising since there's a lot of 'good habitat'. (=bambu zal). Bait (banana smashed w/ oatmeal) hadn't been replaced since 1st night. Today I removed both traps. We caught an Akodon in the Sherman at home (baits banana). Carmo Acima traps : ① Delomys dorsalis (Tom 44) on the ground. Trap was, dragged for ½ meter from place where it had been set. Jair thinks a hawk tried to get to the mouse. It was wounded on right shoulder. (this is the same place where we caught the Proechimys dying yesterday). Bait on Carmo Acima trap was, already 2 days old. We replaced it for every trap today, same bait a, before (banana smashed w/ raisins, and peanuts and oatmeal). Last night and early this morning I managed to revive some animals that were too cold. But some died later. → by putting them close to wood stove
