After are “Big Dam Hike” we were given the morning to rest and go over some of the mathematical equations that give us estimated populations of the small mammals (mostly rodents), deer, snow-shoe hare and porcupine that live on Cook’s Lake farm. Still more surveying is needed before we can have any conclusive numbers of mammal populations.
After lunch, we headed to Cook’s Lake to set up another small mammal trapping grid. We set up the traps again and placed 50 in the field and 50 in the woodlands. It was raining pretty hard and the conditions were less than ideal. On our way out we checked the weather monitoring stations and headed back to the cottage.
