Sorex pacificus
Coyote Peak, at 3000 ft., Humboldt Co., Calif.
June 10, 1933
Spec. 2769 was captured at side of large
log in drier aspect of forest - the damp enough
at that night now. The suggestion for the
trap was made with the [illegible] shoe - there was
no natural runway previously. Evidently
the shrew lived in the damp litter & dirt
where it fed on insects and any freshly
disturbed spot was a desirable area & scented
over for food.
