The NPS established the Natural Resource Inventory and Monitoring Program (I&M) to help park units collect scientifically credible ecological resource information and to develop or improve field and analytical monitoring techniques. As a first step, 5-year inventories were initiated in the North Coast and Cascades Network (NCCN) to gather core sets of data describing park vascular plants and vertebrate resources. A small mammal inventory was conducted at Fort Clatsop National Memorial between May 20 and June 1, 2001. Twelve traplines were set using Sherman live traps in riparian and upland forest habitats, and mist netting and Anabat acoustic recording were employed to survey for bat species. Ten small mammal species were documented during the survey.
