Tropical Storm Emily is approaching so Mike wants everyone to stay off the Refuge from Tuesday afternoon through Thursday, so today is the last day of trapping until next March. I caught one male (a recapture from several days ago) and a new lactating female who will have a sore leg for a few days and a PIT tag for the rest of her life, which could be from 3-5 more years. I am still amazed at the fact that I rarely recapture any juveniles marked on the refuge and all adults are new animals or individuals that were marked as adults.
