ine of traps. Additional
trapping at this locality failed to produce more shrews. The other
three specimens were captured alive on February 1 (one) and February 2
(two), 1961, in the wake of a bulldozer that was clearing land adjacent
to the place where the first specimen was trapped. The ground cover
being cleared away consisted mostly of dry, dense weeds and short,
thorny scrub; the latter was sparse in some places and formed dense
thickets in others. One individual that was kept alive for a short time
in a can ate crickets and roaches readily and ate one spider, but
refused isopods. On one occasion it ate six crickets in about three
hours. Wet oatmeal and oatmeal mixed with peanut butter both were
refused.
