Idaho Army National Guard POPULATION DYNAMICS OF PIUTE GROUND SQUIRRELS (UROCITELLUS MOLLIS): LESSONS AND RESULTS FROM FOUR YEARS OF LIVE TRAPPING Zoe Tinkle Idaho Army National Guard 10 November 2016

Project Objectives Estimate Piute densities in variable native and nonnative habitat types within the NCA Estimate survivorship by habitat type Detect impacts of plague

Total Number of Captures

*Both sites per habitat type and both seasons Densities 2013-2016 * *Both sites per habitat type and both seasons

Take-home… We can capture and recapture a lot of squirrels! EFFORT! Reliable indices of density?- See Dr. Yensen’s talk this afternoon! Densities vary by year, habitat, and site Increase site sample size Survivorship varies by year, somewhat by habitat Possible epizootic plague die-off at three geographically close sites
