Abstract
Movement of yearling yellow bellied marmots was studied by radio tracking. The equipment developed for this study is described and consists of a surgically implanted transmitter, two types of direction finding antennas and an inexpensive receiver. The results suggest that a river forms a barrier to movements, dispersing animals use burrows of greater separation then resident animals, and dispersion results in a net movement of more than a kilometer from the original colony.
