We identified this as a Pocket Gopher trail based on the walk or trot gait, and the width and length of this gait. I don't know if we can get down to a particular species. Taken during Earth Native Wilderness School's Wildlife Tracking Intensive 2013-2014.

Descrição

We found these two mandibles that we believe are from a Grasshopper Mouse in the Great Horned Owl pellets previously pictured. I don't know if they are from Mearns' Grasshopper Mouse or Northern Grasshopper Mouse. In fact, they could be from two different individuals. So I'm leaving the ID at Onychomys sp. for now. Can anyone tell?
