Although several direct observations of avian predation events are known in the northern range of the red squirrel distribution, no accounts have been reported in the southern portion. We observed predation upon a hermit thrush (<em>Catharus guttatus</em>) nestling by the Mount Graham red squirrel (<em>T. h. grahamensis</em>), an endangered subspecies living at the southern terminus of the distribution of the red squirrel.</p> </div> <h3 class="field-label"> Additional Information </h3> <div class="field-uaqs-pub-addinfo"> <a href="https://bioone.org/journals/the-southwestern-naturalist/volume-52/issue-1/0038-4909(2007)52[155:ANPBEM]2.0.CO;2/AVIAN-NESTLING-PREDATION-BY-ENDANGERED-MOUNT-GRAHAM-RED-SQUIRREL/10.1894/0038-4909(2007)52[155:ANPBEM]2.0.CO;2.short" target="_blank">AVIAN NESTLING PREDATION BY ENDANGERED MOUNT GRAHAM RED SQUIRREL</a> </div> <span class="field-label"> Date of publication: </span> <div class="field-uaqs-year inline"> <span property="dc:date" datatype="xsd:dateTime" content="2007-01-01T00:00:00-07:00" class="date-display-single">2007</span> </div> <h3 class="field-label"> Topics </h3> <div class="field-uaqs-pub-research-areas"> <a href="/research-categories/red-squirrels" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">red squirrels</a> </div> <div class="field-uaqs-pub-research-areas"> <a href="/research-categories/predation" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">predation</a> </div> <div class="field-uaqs-pub-research-areas"> <a href="/research-categories/hermit-thrust" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">hermit thrust</a> </div> <div class="field-uaqs-pub-research-areas"> <a href="/research-categories/mount-graham-red-squirrel" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">Mount Graham Red Squirrel</a> </div> <div class="field-uaqs-pub-research-areas"> <a href="/research-categories/artificial-nests" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">artificial nests</a> </div> Tue, 30 Jul 2019 22:19:02 +0000 thackerk1 240 at https://conservation.arizona.edu
