- Abstract
Mammals at the Indianapolis International Airport conservation properties were studied from 2008 until 2010 in association with on-going studies of the bat community at the site. Results from a combination of mist-netting, small mammal trapping, and observational records are reported herein. Thirty-seven of the 59 species of mammals known to occur in Indiana were documented at the conservation properties owned by the Indianapolis International Airport. Species not previously captured in Hendricks County were the masked shrew (Sorex cinereus), deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus), and western harvest mouse (Reithrodontomys megalotis). These individuals of the western harvest mouse also represent the easternmost record of this species’ known range.
