Abstract
In this study the first problem was to find
what mammals were present. There are lists of mammals for
county, state, and regional levels, but these are not necessarily
accurate for the fauna of any particular area within these levels. Mammals are generally restricted to a particular
habitat which, therefore must be present for the mammal
to occur. However, the presence of the habitat is no guarantee
that the particular mammal will appear. Therefore, it is
necessary to discover what species are present in each particular
area.
Once the species present are determined, the objective
becomes one of learning their distribution. This work
concentrates on the relationship of the mammals to the habitats
and several ideas were analyzed in considering this relationship.
