Reproduction in the Arctic Shrew, Sorex arcticus (original) (raw)

1983, Journal of Mammalogy

AI-generated Abstract

The reproductive biology of the Arctic shrew, Sorex arcticus, is characterized by its habitat preferences in northern boreal environments, specifically within nonforested areas. This study, conducted in Anoka County, Minnesota from 1973 to 1977, provides novel insights into the reproductive patterns of S. arcticus, noting key findings such as reproductive activity levels among males and lactation status in females. The findings contribute to a limited understanding of reproduction in this species, indicating significant reproductive traits that distinguish S. arcticus from closely related populations.
