Small Mammal Survey
In autumn every year, 1854 Resource Management staff coordinate a small mammal survey to monitor trends in annual abundance of small animals like mice, voles, and shrews that are important in the diets of predators. There appears to be fairly good correlation between years of abundant small mammals in the woods and good numbers of juvenile fisher and pine marten in the fall trapping harvest.
