Title: Baseline surveys for mammals in the Henry Mountains, Utah
Description: Under the terms of an Interagency Agreement between National Biological Survey (NBS) and National Park Service (NPS), and in cooperation with the Bureau of Land Management Hanksville Office, surveys for mammals in the Henry Mountains were initiated in 1993 and continued through 1995. The goals were to: (1) obtain current information on distribution and abundance of mammals, especially rodents, bats, and endemic taxa of the Henry Mountains; (2) compare the fauna of the Henry Mountains with adjacent areas to better understand the taxonomy and zoogeography of these mammals; and (3) provide such information as may be useful to land managers in this area. The report includes an updated list of mammals in the Henry Mountains and capture records for 1993-1995.
