3 Ecosystems and species ranges are changing rapidly
4 In Wyoming» Species of Greatest Conservation Need WGFD 2010» Bats: 11 species» Rabbits: 2 species» Rodents: 18 species» Shrews: 5 species
5 Pocket Mice» Family: Heteromyidae 2 genera» Fur-lined exterior cheek pouches for storing and carrying food» Cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum) thought to have negative impact Ceradini unpublished; Ostoja et al. 2013; Richardson et al Tegan May» Most studies done at small scale with small scale Heisler et al habitat variables Silky Pocket Mouse Perognathus flavus Plains Pocket Mouse Perognathus flavescens Olive-backed Pocket Mouse Perognathus fasciatus Great Basin Pocket Mouse Perognathus parvus
6 1. Difficult to detect because of standard trapping protocol: Sherman Live Traps Peanut Butter (and oats) 2. Wyoming habitat a-typical for pocket mice. Pocket Mice are Rare 3. Poor competitors and therefore rare.
7 Project Goals Can we create a protocol that maximizes pocket mouse captures? What habitat characteristics are selected by these species? Are pocket mice excluded from desirable locations due to competition with deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus)?
8 What trapping method can maximize pocket mouse captures?
9 Sampling Effort Typical Trapping Grid: 10 X 10, 10m Spacing Hanser et. al Ostoja and Schupp 2009 Dizney et. al Manor and Saltz 2008 Mullican et. al Kuenzi et. al Average Trap Area Effort 10 hectares, square 100 traps per grid Proposed Trap Area Effort 35.6 hectares, rectangular and long traps per grid
10
11 Trap and Bait Protocol 4x20 Trapping Grid 25 meter spacing Trap Types: Havahart Longworth Sherman Bait Types: Peanut Butter Horse Feed Bird Seed Set Up: 2-3 traps per point Polyester bedding Rotate bait types Longworth traps only on 1 trap line per grid Tegan May Tegan May
12 Methods <2300m elevation <30% tree canopy cover
13 Methods Trapped 4 consecutive nights per site Each individual uniquely marked PIT Tag or Ear Tag + Hair Clip Kelly Shank
14 Study Area
15 sites 18 species 4179 unique individuals 72.4% of captures were deer mice 4 pocket mouse species: 149 individuals sites 19 species 1782 unique individuals 72.7% captures were deer mice 4 pocket mouse species: 119 individuals
