Abstract

The South has an impressive diversity of mammal associations and terrestrial communities. These communities range from montane spruce-fir forests to tropical hardwoods and from coastal dunes to dry prairies. Centuries of settlement and land use change have shaped and modified the mammal communities observed in the South today.
