Overview

A survey of mammals (excluding bats) at Colonial National Historical Park (COLO) was conducted from 2003 to 2004 to document the presence of > 90% of the mammals in the park, describe their distributions and relative abundances, quantify habitat-specific species diversity, and provide recommendations for management and conservation. Surveys relied on live trapping with Sherman, Tomahawk, and pitfall traps for small to medium-size mammals, direct observation of individuals and their sign (e.g. tracks, scats), and remote photography. We identified nine principal habitats - field (grasslands, including old fields), mixed coniferousdeciduous forest, pine forest, deciduous forest, forested wetland, field/mixed forest edge, marsh/mixed forest edge, wetland (marsh and swamp), and golden bamboo - and targeted locations for sampling.
