The objectives of this study were to identify the species of non-flying small mammals in the study site, to map out the distribution pattern of non-flying small mammals in the terrestrial area of the study site and to determine the relative abundance of non-flying small mammals in the study site. The total trapping effort was 240 traps. Overall, there were 44 individuals of non-flying small mammals that consist of 6 species from 3 families caught at all trails. The distribution pattern of non-flying small mammals was not distributed evenly in headquarters of Crocker Range Park. Counter Road showed the highest total captured for non-flying small mammals with total 16 individuals. This might due to several factors such as human activities, habitat selection by the non-flying small mammals, weather fluctuation, traps design, traps placement and bait used. Callosciurus notatus have the highest relative abundance among the other species in this study.
