Hoffmeister 1939 Citellus beldingi June 20 Crooked R., 3600 ft., 3 mi. E mouth of Bear Cr., Crooks Co., Oregon I did not see any of these ground squirrels anywhere else in the Crooked River Canyon except here this morning at the Gibson ranch. About 7:00 A.M. 4 were seen along the road that borders on alfalfa and irrigated lands of Mr. Gibson. Along the roadway in the drier part of the canyon, I had seen Eutamias minimus but no Citellus beldingi. The animals were not especially wary, as they remained at their holes when the car passed within 20 ft., and immediately after passing by, they moved out on to the roadway. It appeared as though their burrows were not actually in the cultivated fields but between the fields and the roadway. I collected 2 of these, and they seemed to be not fully adults and not exceedingly fat.
