This population is divided into two parts bisected by the Umpqua River and is relatively isolated. The authors live-trapped and collared adults as part of the study.  The Oregon Dunes turned out to support the smallest home ranges and highest population density of martens in all North America. Prospects for the long-term survival of this group are not good.  The authors suggest that banning trapping of coastal martens would help their future survival.  Maps, photographs.},

	note = {This paper describes space usage in Pacific martens in the Mount Lassen National Forest and in the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area.  Martens were captured and collared with both VHF and GPS collars. Martens in California had larger territories than those on the Oregon Coast. Males had larger territories than females.  While same-sex individuals never shared territories, some overlap between males and females was observed.  The martens made the rounds of their territories between 2-14 days, scent-marking their boundaries. Territorial boundaries did not change with the seasons.  The authors note that {\textquotedblleft}such high-resolution data offers new opportunities to understand the social-spatial organization of these populations{\textquotedblright} (p.686).},
