|
||
Diet of the Little Pocket Mouse consists largely of seeds of shrubs, annuals, and grasses, but it also includes smaller amounts of green vegetation and insects. It prefers smaller seeds, such as the minute seeds of grasses. Food items are collected in external, furlined cheek pouches and transported back to burrows, where they are stored in burrow caches. Like all small species of silky pocket mice, it tends to husk seeds or separate seeds from seed-heads before stuffing them in its cheek pouches. The Little Pocket Mouse does not need to drink water, subsisting entirely on water from its food and water produced as a byproduct of metabolism.

|
||
The Little Pocket Mouse begins breeding soon after it emerges from winter dormancy, usually producing a single litter averaging 3-3 young (range 2-6). In drought years, when few annuals germinate, it may not breed; when productivity is high, females may produce multiple litters, and young-of-the-year may breed later in the same season.

The Little Pocket Mouse is nocturnal and terrestrial, spending the day belowground in its burrow and foraging on the surface at night. It appears to enter torporfor varying periods in response to cold surface temperatures or low food supply, and it may be absent from the surface for up to nine months of the year.

|
||
Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. Efforts to capture specimens of the disjunct subspecies along the margin of Bahia Kino (kinoensis) at the only known locality were unsuccessful. Most of the narrow (0-25 x 3 km) sandy peninsula on which they were previously found has been developed for homes. Traps placed on a small remaining patch ofrelatively undisturbed dunes on a Mexican naval base yielded only numerous darkling beetles (Eleodes); numerous tracks and scat of feral cats (Felis catus) were evident in the sand. This disjunct subspecies of the Little Pocket Mouse may be extinct.
