Hamsters
and ground squirrels in the north of their geographic
range in Zhytomyr Oblast are rare. Most of the known
finds of both species are dated to the early 20th
century and come from the forest-steppe part of
the region. In recent decades, some data have been
obtained mainly by surveying the local population.
Sources of additional information may be local lore
materials, including collections of local museums.
The organization of special field research remains
relevant. |
