TY - JOUR T1 - Habitat selection by small mammals of the tallgrass prairie: experimental patch choice JF - The Prairie Naturalist Y1 - 1985 A1 - Peterson, S.K. A1 - Kaufman, G.A. A1 - D.W. Kaufman KW - tallgrass prairie AB -

Small mammals were sampled in 44 experimental burn plots on Konza Prairie Research Natural Area (NPRNA). These plots included burned and unburned upland and burned and unburned lowland tall-grass prairie. Peromyscus maniculatus was most common in burned upland, Reithrodontomys megalotis in unburned lowland, and Sigmodon hispidus in lowland with no response to fire treatment. Experimental patch choice was similar to habitat selection documented by earlier work on large watershed units on KPRNA
