Fellers GM, Long L, Guscio G, Pratt D. 2004. Inventories of Terrestrial Vertebrates at John Muir National Historic Site and Eugene O'Neil Historic Site 2004. Final Report.
We initiated inventories in non-developed areas of both John Muir and Eugene O’Neill National Historic Sites in January 2001 with searches for reptiles and amphibians under natural debris. In February and March 2001, we began a more formal inventory that included: 1) automatic cameras for photographing large and medium-sized mammals, 2) periodic live trapping for small mammals, and 3) use of artificial cover boards to attract and find reptiles and amphibians. Field work was completed in April 2003. The surveys detected the following numbers of species: - John Muir NHS: 16 mammals, 5 reptiles, and 5 amphibians; - Eugene O’Neill NHS: 9 mammals, 5 reptiles, and 1 amphibian.
