The Mammals of Warren Woods, Berrien County, Michigan by Lee R. Dice

"The Mammals of Warren Woods, Berrien County, Michigan" by Lee R. Dice is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book presents a detailed study of the mammalian fauna found in the Warren Woods, a state preserve in Michigan, aiming to document and understand the various species and their habitats before further human alteration takes place in the area. In this extensive study, Dice chronicles his observations and findings from a research expedition that took place over the summer of 1919. He identifies numerous mammal habitats, including aquatic, swamp, flood-plain, and forest environments, detailing the species inhabiting each area. The study includes data regarding trapping activities, the identification of various species, and the impact of human activities on the ecosystems. Through meticulous documentation, Dice provides insights into the relative abundance and diversity of mammal species, the changes in habitats due to pasturing, and the influences of human encroachment on native wildlife. He also notes fossil records and examines historical occurrences of certain mammals in Berrien County, contributing a valuable resource for future ecological studies.
