Golden Mouse (Ochrotomys nuttalli) - English
URL: http://www.nsrl.ttu.edu/tmot1/ochrnutt.htm

These small, arboreal mice are adapted to, and occur chiefly in, forested areas. Tangles of trees, vines, and brush seem to be a preferred habitat. Specimens have been trapped on dark, wooded slopes where the mice lived in nests in tangles of grapevines; others were taken in an old pasture overgrown with blackberry, wild grape and a few small trees.
