Zapus hudsonius) consisting of 762 and 206 captures in NWSG and airfield grassland areas, respectively.

Discovery of
Zapus hudsonius in northeastern Oklahoma, with comments on its ecological status.
leucopus represented 94% of total captures (65 of 69), with other species including Microtus pennsylvanicus,
Zapus hudsonius, and Blarina brevicauda.
We reviewed existing habitat and dispersal data for several wildlife species in the ecoregion that may serve as indicators of riparian connectivity: the meadow jumping mouse (
Zapus hudsonius), tiger salamander (Ambystoma tigrinum), southern flying squirrel (Glaucomys volans), and eastern tiger swallowtail butterfly (Papilio glaucus).
Zapus hudsonius lives throughout Michigan today, where it prefers grasslands, meadows, and forest edges.
