Showing differences in ear between the four species of White-footed Mice found in the Yosemite section, (a) Gambel (Common) White-footed Mouse; (6) Boyle White-footed Mouse; (c) Parasitic White-footed Mouse; (d) Gilbert White-footed Mouse. For nesting places and daytime retreats "White-footed Mice make use of any available cover, such as is afforded by crevices or holes in rocks, hollows in trees or in logs, or holes in the ground. Often they use burrows made by other rodents, while in some cases it seems likely that they do a certain amount of excavating themselves. Despite its great numbers this mouse does not leave any very obvious indications of its presence. Its small black droppings are the only regular and definite evidences to be found. Nothing distinctive pertaining to its nest, or route of travel, or choice of food, is left as a clue, as is the case.
