Hi people,
Last week I posted my Youtube clips of my trip to the American west. I found a Pocket Gopher at the parking lot of Zion National Park, Utah.
Can anyone tell me which species? I’m thinking of either Botta´s or Northern Pocket Gopher.
Hope to hear something soon,
Best regards,

Looks like small ear spots. I am thinking Botta’s.
I agree. NPG would usually have more prominent ear spots. Besdes, Zion is known for tame, surface-active BPG.
Thanks for helping me out!
