P.A.Kelly 1984 Journal 5 were in breeding condition, but only one was pregnant (3x7mm embryos). We prepared study skins from all three and I also took blood, liver, spleen, kidney, heart & muscle samples for electrophoresis. We decided to delay trap baiting until 6pm to cut down on losses to smaller species. We also rearranged the traps to give: 13 at Upper Spring, 10 at the Rockslide, and 9 at X89. At 9pm we went out to check all traps #2207 released Berkeley I got 3 more animals (♂420g,♀#2205,♀#94) at the Upper Spring while Catty and Ann got nothing at the Rockslide and X89. Sunday Slept in til 6.30 this morning, and trail #21 at 7am we went out to check and collect all the traps. I collected the remaining 10 at the Upper Spring (no animals), the girls however finally got one animal (♀(Bark.)#95) at the Rockslide (10 traps), but again nothing at X89 (9 traps). Reased 2 ♀♂quad animals At 9.30am we released the big male (# & Uppher Spring 2207) and a♀(#2205), and we took the other ♀from the Upper Spring and the one from the Rockslide back to Berkeley.
