Conti, Blair. 1976 Journal Lone Pine Station, Inyo Co., California April 29 How I set 3 line of 20 live traps and 2 lines of 24 muskrat speices, all perpendicular to the road and to the south: There was only 1 cat in 3 hours on the road East of Lone Pine Station, where the station itself was fairly large. April 30 It was a warm night. Got up at 5:00 pm and I'd guess it was almost 4. No fatalities from the cold. No moon or wind -- a supposedly "ideal" night to trap. Results of 46 live traps at L.P. Stn., got 4 O. musys, H.P. merimus, 1 Peromyscus moniculatus and 1 Perognathus longimembris. In the 4 of snap traps I got only 1 P. longimembris. At 1.3 mi. E. Lone Pine Station, I had very poor luck. 1 O. musys and 1 P. longimembris in 50 live trap and nothing at all in the snap traps. I could almost suspect -- a personly argym, so far killing mosquitos, reduced the rodent population here, as The habitat showed much promise -- lizard sign, etc.
