occasion.
(15.) Over a span of 90 days and 15 captures this female was
not recorded as making any movement. She was living in one
of the woodland houses. Mature males were numerous in the
area and she was visited by at least two.
(16.) This female was also living in the woodland section
and was first caught on March 30, 1952, in one of the less
favorable houses. She was trapped 17 times over a period of
85 days. One movement of 68 feet to a new home site was
recorded, but the area of foraging probably did not change.
She was caught here four times and then disappeared.
(17.) This female was first trapped as a subadult on October
5, 1948, at a house in brush on the upper part of a north
slope. On November 24 she had shifted 590 feet to the bottom
of the slope and was living in the recess beneath an
undermined honey locust on a gully bank. On November 25 she
was caught in a similar situation 100 feet farther east
along the gully bank. She was recaptured at the gully on
November 26 and 30, December 1, 3, 22, and March 8 and 9,
and in all she shifted six times between the two gully-bank
dens.
(18.) This female was first trapped as an adult on November
18, 1948, in a gully-bank den. She was recaptured at this
same place a year later, on November 18 and 30, 1949. On
February 19, 1950, she was caught at a hollow sycamore 650
feet farther up the gully, and she was recaptured there on
February 25 and April 7, and on June 15, 1951. On August 6,
1951, she was caught at a house in a thicket on the gully
bank, between the first and second locations and 150 feet
from the latter.
(19.) This female was recorded only twice; on October 15,
1948, she was at a hilltop rock outcrop. On July 14, 1950,
she had moved 1480 feet and was living in a rock pile at the
base of the slope, near the same hollow sycamore where
female No. 18 had been caught.
(20.) This female was first caught as an adult on April 5,
1950, at a large boulder of a hillside rock outcrop. On
October 7, 1950, she had shifted 110 feet to a house at an
osage orange tree on the hilltop rock outcrop. On November 9
she was back at the first location and on November 28 she
had moved 70 feet south along the hillside outcrop. On
January 11 and February 9, 1951
