About This Book

A field survey and species account catalogs the mammals found on the high mesa and adjacent canyons of southwestern Colorado, combining field collecting, museum specimens, and habitat observations. The report describes the region's geology, climate, and vegetation, explains zoogeographic relationships, and provides species-by-species accounts with notes on distribution, abundance, and ecological associations. It includes specimen records and locality data, discusses occurrences of montane and southwestern elements, and highlights implications for park management and interpretive programs aimed at conserving native mammals and their habitats.
