Population Parameters of a Population of Peromyscus Leucopus in West-Central Kansas
Ecological parameters for white-footed mice (Peromyscus leucopus) were estimated from data collected by live-trapping in a riparian habitat in west-central Kansas from October of 1972 through September of 1973.

Ecology of Botfly Parasitism in White-Footed Mice (Peromyscus leucopus) [PDF]
White-footed mice (Peromyscus leucopus) are an abundant species in eastern deciduous forests. The objective of this study was to examine the ecology of botfly parasitism in a white footed mouse population in the Brockport Woods, Brockport, NY. I analyzed

Dominant deer mice show the importance of abundance in competition
Abstract Detecting competitive interactions is important for predicting species responses to environmental change but remains challenging, especially over large scales. Modern coexistence theory predicts that reduced ecological trait overlap promotes coexistence through stabilizing mechanisms, while fitness differences generate competitive asymmetries.

Lyme disease (LD), the most prevalent tick-borne disease of humans in the Northern Hemisphere, is caused by the spirochetal bacterium of Borreliella burgdorferi (Bb) sensu lato complex.

Abstract While roads have well‐documented effects on wildlife movement, the impact of smaller non‐vehicle recreational trails typical of urban preserves is less thoroughly understood, particularly for small mammals. We used mark–recapture to identify movement of deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) across three broad (>2.5 m) recreational trails in small

Abstract About half of all plant species rely on animals such as scatter‐hoarding small mammals for seed dispersal. These plants include many keystone species for which small mammals are key primary and secondary dispersal agents as well as seed predators.

Ticks transmit infectious agents including bacteria, viruses and protozoa. However, their transmission may be compromised by host resistance to repeated tick feeding.
