Salt marsh harvest mouse
(Reithrodontomys raviventris)
The saltmarsh harvest mouse weighs 8 - 14 g (0.3 - 0.5 oz.). It lives in salt marsh characterized by salt marsh herbs, grasses and reeds. Stems and leaves of salt marsh plants are its major food source. Insects and seeds are also eaten occasionally. It is able to drink salt water, one of the few mammals able to do so. Grass nests are constructed by the saltmarsh harvest mouse. The nests are usually above ground in grass, low shrubs, or small trees. This mouse is mainly nocturnal and is active all year long. It apparently is a good swimmer. Except during the breeding season, it appears to be solitary. Very few of these mice live as long as 1 year in the wild. The saltmarsh harvest mouse has only been known from areas north and south of San Francisco Bay, entirely within the narrow belt of wetlands surrounding the Bay. Its range continues to shrink because of habitat loss due to the draining and filling of wetlands for industrial and suburban development.
