Opportunistic foraging by the kangaroo rat Dipodomys deserti Stephens (Rodentia: Heteromyidae)
Abstract
The kangaroo rat, Dipodomys deserti Stephens, was observed capturing and killing insects that were flying about an ultraviolet lamp. The white-lined sphinx moth, Hyles lineate (F.), and the carrot beetle, Bothynus gibbosus (DeGeer), were put into the cheek pouches and carried away from the collection area.
