Abstract:The study presents a method for estimating the size of the home range by means of the number of traps coming within its limits. This method was verified, and then home range size estimated for three species of small forest rodents, Apodemus flavicollis (Melch.). A. agrarius (Pall.) and Clethrionomys glareolus (Schreb.).
