Fig. 1 in Demographic and environmental correlates of home ranges and long-distance movements of Mohave ground squirrels

Fig. 1.—Map of the Freeman Gulch study area in the west-central portion of the geographic range of the Mohave ground squirrel (MGS) in the Mojave Desert, California. The study area is approximately indicated by a minimum convex polygon drawn around all MGS radiotelemetry locations collected in 2003–2004. The Coso Range, in which MGS studies were conducted in the 1990s, is located in the northern portion of the MGS range. The top inset map shows juvenile and adult MGS locations within the Freeman Gulch study area. The cluster of locations in the extreme northeast of the inset was from a single individual that made a long-distance movement as a juvenile in 2003 and established a home range as an adult the following year. The bottom inset map shows the location of the MGS range in southern California.
