Food limitation and habitat preference of northern flying squirrels ( Glaucomys sabrinus ) and red squirrels ( Tamiasciurus hudsonicus ) were examined in British Columbia, Canada. Using mark-recapture techniques to estimate population demographics, we tested the hypotheses that populations of G. sabrinus and T. hudsonicus were limited by availability of food and that old-growth stands provided higher-quality habitat than second-growth stands. Populations were monitored on six study areas; two… Expand
