Comments	ID confirmed by Leah Ramsay CDC 2010. This deceased mouse is one of four deceased found at this location since 2008 with several more observed escape hopping. Local small mammal biologists note that Z. princeps has been previously noted further south in the Invermere area while the Z.hudsonius is noted from the northerly area of Valemont, with few records between these two locations.
