Palaeoecology Neotoma provides access to data on pollen, fossil mammals and everything else on the Neotoma palaeoecology database.

Neotoma stephensi hoard only juniper twigs, which make up 90 percent of their diet despite the plant’s toxicity.

In rats of the genus Neotoma, some calcium oxalate passes through the intestines unchanged, but large amounts of calcium are absorbed through the intestine.
