As part of the National Park Service Inventory and Monitoring Program, biological inventories were conducted for mammals at Navajo National Monument (NAVA) and Hubbell Trading Post National Historic Site (HUTR). There had been no baseline mammal work conducted at either park prior to these surveys. Field inventories occurred in 2003 and 2004. A variety of survey methods were used including live-trapping, mist netting and acoustic surveys for bats, track-scat surveys, and opportunistic observations. At NAVA, a total of 41 species were documented. The deer mouse was the most abundant species of mammal at NAVA during both field seasons. One Navajo Tribal-listed endangered species, Townsend's big-eared bat, was documented during this study. At HUTR, a total of 32 species were documented. The piñon mouse was the most abundant species of mammal during 2003 while deer mice were the most abundant species in 2004. No federal or Navajo Tribal-listed endangered species were documented during this study.
