Guti, Blain 1976 Journal My 3 10 mile N wolf hole Mohave Co Arizona Left for wolf hole at 8:00 am, arrived 5:00 pm, 414 miles covered. Weather is cloudy, some rain, squalls reported, but dry at the trapping site. some 9 mile S of the arizona-utah border. spent 2 hrs setting out 45 snap traps, 3 traps per dunews complex #1 set line of 48 down, went to S of camp and then N to level of camp. #2 second line of 47 on flat S of camp yield was only 4 o mings, one a juvenile and I caught dry the leg in the trap. 4 anchorys, 1 neotoma, 1 p longimanis, and ca 12 peropcea also taken - I set 40 live traps in the area around camp, 20 S, 10 E and 10 X E of camp (see map). In these 40 traps, took 13 D. microps (7 off sand) 9 D. merriami 1 perognathus parvus, 3 P. longimanis, 2 anchorys, and 1 neotoma lepida, for 29 animals in 40 traps, somewhat better than my snap trapping efforts. I fear I'll have to set traps around camp to catch sufficient microps for stomach contents data. The wind blew most of the night. There was 1/4 moon, set ca midnight, and low temp was 10.50C.
