Experimentally Induced Habitat Shifts by Hispid Cotton Rats (Sigmodon hispidus): Response to Protein Supplementation

Hispid cotton rats (Sigmodon hispidus) occupy habitat patches nonrandomly on the Texas coastal prairie. We addressed the hypothesis that this pattern of habitat occupancy was influenced by nutrient content of habitat patches. Because availability of protein varied among habitat patches and amount of...
