Central Rockies Mammals

"Highly sociable rodents, Columbian ground squirrels live in colonies that are divided into separate territories ruled by dominant males. Each colony features a network of burrows and dens, all cleverly designed with multiple entrances and escape hatches and built so that the dens stay high and dry through even the worst of storms."

Central Rockies Mammals introduces you to 10 different rodents and 2 different lagomorphs with full colour photographs and one to two page descriptions. The guidebook covers beavers, porcupines, marmots, squirrels, chipmunks, muskrats, woodrats, mice, hares and pikas.
