June 21 (continued) 352 + 28 + ? mm), a F w/ tip of her tail clearly missing.
I palpated a mouse from her w/ a 90mm tail and body smaller than adult bol mouse (based on hindquarters); judging from small hindlegs and feet, long tail, and general appearance, it is cf.

We saw a Dasypus novemcinctus rooting in leaf litter ~2100hr beside the sidewalk to the River Station. At ~2200h there were two Leptodeira septentrionalis adults in the large open tree where we've seen one the past few nights.
June 22 Rained during the night and some scattered showers during the day.

Several ribs are broken, suggesting predation or scavenging of the snake.
June 23 Heavy but brief shower during breakfast. Photographed animals all morning. At 1930h we found a Ninia sebae (adult, not processed) that thrashed when
