Erin conducted her Honours research during the final year of her undergraduate degree in natural resource sciences. For her thesis, Erin examined nearly 10 years of data on the small mammal community sharing the landscape with our Osoyoos snake study population. The Great Basin Pocket Mouse (pictured) and the Deer Mouse are the main ‘players’ in this system. In addition to live trapping and habitat work, she compared annual variation in small mammal abundance with changes in the body condition of rattlesnakes
