Hello, My lab group studies prairie voles, Microtus ochrogaster, and recently moved to upstate NY from central Oklahoma. We need to start a new colony and we are planning a field trapping trip to Urbana-Champaign, Illinois in May - June 2014.
We need roughly 20 pairs of animals to start a new breeding colony at our new institution. We have some Fitch traps, but would like to have larger trap capacity in order to get the job done as quickly as possible. We are looking to borrow or perhaps even purchase small Sherman traps from a lab/institution if they are not being used this late spring/early summer. Thank you very much for your consideration Danielle N.
