DAY 16:


Location: Mojo has moved about 15 feet southeast of his day 15 location. He is still in the area of very dense briers that I had to cut a trail through to find him on day 14. He was totally buried in the leaf litter under a 3" diameter American Holly tree.

Activity status: motionless, shell closed.

Habitat: South facing slope on the northern edge of the old field. The tree cover is a regnerating forest of young American Holly, Dogwood, Poplar and Red Maple and with a ground cover and understory of Greenbrier, Multiflora Rose, Blackberry, Blueberry and mixed grasses.
