P.A.Kelly 1987 Journal morning although he was possibly still alive on the ground then. He could have fallen from 100 A 30'-40' above or lie could have got belted on the nose (some hemorrhaging (subcut.) by a trapdoor, and then fallen 7 or 8' to the ground. One of the 3 traps was also on the ground 6-8' away but the other 2 were untouched. Autopsy revealed very extensive wounding on the rump, back, chest and tail (PK Cat # 161) He even had a large infected wound on the left side of the chest. Pres. as a skeletal specimen. We checked the traps in the long field and had most of them closed by 1 am. Picked up a new D> (395-96) at 101A. April 23 Checked + lifted traps in Central Canyon and on Haystack Hill from 8.30 - 10 am. Caught 3 more new woodrats on Haystack. Anne also found the remains of a Badger, in the gully/ravine between H3 & H4. The skull has some tooth marks on the cranium. Continued updating my individual life list- sries. Around 5.30 we started setting 25 traps on Sch. Hill (Heads 331-355, trapped for 1st time). We also set 55 traps for specific D>D + FF in the long field. Checked L. Field traps from 11 pm - 1 am.
