A positive reaction to Guinea-pig anti-serum was found on the Cottonwood point recovered from the floor of the vent shaft in the square pithouse. Within the order Rodentia this anti-serum will elicit a strong positive reaction to porcupine Erethizodontidae family) and weaker reactions to beaver (Castoridae family) and squirrel (Sciuridae family). A positive reaction to cat anti-serum was found on the Great Basin Stemmed point from the Fish Lake survey. This could represent any member of the Felidae family known to occur in the area.
