August 9 (continued)
the baby found yesterday under the same
soto leaves (NB: the skin I found near
her is not hers, as we located this baby's
skin - based on head pattern - among
those from the entrance to F29 site.) At
0900 Dave spots F38 under the boulder,
stretching out of a hole at upper east
end. He thinks she looks skinny,
Marcio thinks she looks fat! At 1030h
at site F21 we get signals of her, 36, 37
from under the rock, and Marcio sees
3-spot and 4-spot in shade at the
entrance. Dave sees a total of four bobes,
and they slowly crawl in out of site as
he takes photos? After dark we road
hunt and set five neonate (bottino) G. Stup
w/in 2 miles E of Portal - the first yet seen.
August 10
At 0740 as we drive Paradise Road toward
our study area, a big male (?) javelina
crosses a hundred meters or so ahead.
At 1000 h all 3 transmitter signals came
from under the rock at F21 site, and
there is a fresh shed baby coiled next to
a bunched up fresh bob skin in shade
at the entrance. As we return to the car a
Mephitis ambled in the ravine beside us.
