Trap height and capture success of arboreal small mammals: Evidence from southern flying squirrels (Glaucomys volans)

Journal Article Risch, T S ; Brady, M J ; Savannah River Ecology Lab., Aiken, SC - American Midland Naturalist

Studies of small mammals often use live traps, but the effect of different trapping heights on capture effectiveness of arboreal mammals has not been directly addressed. We compared the capture success of three trap heights ({open_quotes}low{close_quotes} = 2m, {open_quotes}medium{close_quotes} = 4.5-5m, and {open_quotes}high{close_quotes} high = 8-8.5 m) in capturing arboreal mammals. Southern flying squirrels (Glaucomys volans) constituted 86% of the captures. Low traps captured approximately half as many squirrels (15) as either medium (30) or high traps (28), and individual squirrels were recaptured at a single trap height more often than expected based on chance. Traps at the three heightsmore »« less

Mammals of the Savannah River Site

Technical Report Cothran, E. G. ; Smith, M. H. ; Wolff, J. O. ; ...

This book is designed to be used as a field guide, reference book, bibliography, and introduction to the basic biology and ecology of the 54 mammal species that currently or potentially exist on or near the Savannah River Site (SRS). For 50 of these species, we present basic descriptions, distinguishing morphological features, distribution and habitat preferences, food habits, reproductive biology, social behavior, ecological relationships with other species, and economic importance to man. For those species that have been studied on the SRS, we summarize the results of these studies. Keys and illustrations are provided for whole body and skull identification.more »« less

Large-scale survey of prion protein genetic variability in scrapie disease-free goats from the United States

Journal Article Zeineldin, Mohamed ; Lehman, Kimberly ; Urie, Natalie ; ... - PLoS ONE

Scrapie is a slowly progressive neurodegenerative disease of small ruminants caused by an accumulation of an abnormal isoform of prion protein in the central nervous system. Polymorphisms of the prion protein gene (PRNP) strongly modulate scrapie resistance and incubation period in goats. The aim of this study was to identify PRNP genetic variability in goats across the United States. Blood from a total of 6,029 apparent scrapie disease-free goats from 654 operations and 19 breeds were analyzed. Sequencing of PRNP revealed 26 genotypes with different rates based on eight codons. The GG127, RR154, and QQ222 genotypes were predominant and showedmore »« less
