Conifer lowland forests and conifer plantations were consequently classified as optimal habitat. Neither frequency of occurrence nor mean track counts of snowshoes within suitable habitat changed (P = ) with topography. Frequencies were 71% in uplands, 76% in lowlands, and 85% in intermediate sites. Track counts averaged searched in uplands, in lowlands, and on inter- mediate sites. Frequency of occurrence of snowshoes on sites was compared with amounts of habitat (Table 1) and total forest cover (including nonhabitat) (Table 2). Sites with more than 160 ha of total forest cover were most often (P<) occupied by snowshoes; mean frequencies were 75% ( 160 ha). Sites with more than 160 ha of habitat were most often (P< ) occupied; mean frequen- cies were 68% ( 160 ha). Frequency of occurrence of snowshoes on sites with less than 160 ha of habitat was compared among the six major habitat types. No difference (P = ) in occurrence was found except for aspen- birch habitat where only five sites were examined. Comparison of snowshoe occurrence among the six habitats also showed no difference on sites having more than 160 ha of habitat (P = ), less than PRESENT • OUTLIER POPULATI.
