For example, the Least Shrew (
Cryptotis parva) rarely lives longer 2 y (Mock 1982), whereas Bowhead Whales (Balaena mysticetus) have been estimated to live >200 y (George and others 1999).
The specimen was later dissected and the stomach content was identified from its skull as a
Cryptotis parva (North American least shrew or musarana), now in the Universidad Autonoma de Nuevo Leon, Mammal Collection (UANL-4320).
Similarly, the least shrew (
Cryptotis parva) is a species of concern immediately adjacent to this study site in Indiana but was found in both roadsides and medians.

Two species of shrews were caught, the short-tailed shrew, Blarina brevicauda, and the least shrew,
Cryptotis parva. The short-tailed shrew is usually most abundant in moist and wooded areas, whereas the least shrew, unlike most other shrews, is found in dry fields.
The response of the least shrew (
Cryptotis parva) to olfactory cues associated with prey.
During the past 35 years, the least shrew (
Cryptotis parva) has expanded its distribution along riverine and other mesic corridors in western parts of its distribution, although some recently discovered populations in the West might represent relicts of a previous Pleistocene distribution.
Animals received tap water ad libitum and two or more of the following food it ems were always available: fresh [CO.sub.2] euthanized laboratory animal carcasses, prairie voles (Microtus ochrogaster) or least shrews (
Cryptotis parva); mealworms (Tenebric sp.); feline diet no.

A total of 79 small mammals was trapped at Naval Support Activity Crane, Martin County, Indiana, including 23 short-tailed shrews (Blarina brevicauda), 21 least shrews (

In November 1997, while live-trapping small mammals on a 1.8 ha grid in the tropical hardwood hammocks of Key Largo (25 [degrees] 12[minutes]N, 80 [degrees] 21[minutes]W) we captured one
Cryptotis parva floridana in a Sherman live trap.
