Polygamous?
This text is being moved here for discussion: "Gray-tailed voles are polygamous; females are territorial, males have large home ranges that overlap those of several females, and juvenile emigration is male-biased. " This is a primary source and the last sentence two sentences of the sources abstract dilute out the claim. This should be sourced from a review article or tertiary source to meet inclusion on this article. &mdash; Gaff ταλκ 07:12, 5 December 2014 (UTC)

Questions arising from copy edit

 * Distribution and habitat: the term "transition zone" (why upper case?) needs clarification. The page Transition zone is a disambiguation page, but none of the sense listed there seem applicable here. --Stfg (talk) 15:29, 12 February 2015 (UTC)
 * The term came out of the book Mammals and Life Zones of Oregon, but I do not think that it is in regular use, so I will think of something to take its place. Thank you for working on this article. --Gaff (talk) 15:34, 12 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks, and welcome. --Stfg (talk) 16:23, 12 February 2015 (UTC)
