The Canadian population of kangaroo rats occurs in two discrete areas: in the vicinity of the Great Sand Hills and centred around the Middle Sand Hills along the South Saskatchewan River (Figure 3). These two areas are fragmented by an intervening area of agricultural land that does not contain sand hills (Wolf 2001; Figure 4).
