	note = {To the surprise of many, a small population of Pacific martens has been discovered living along the Oregon coast, west of Highway 101 in coastal dune forests.  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.},
