  • Nicholas, Danielle. "Synaptomys borealis (northern bog lemming)". Animal Diversity Web. Retrieved 2024-10-12
    • This page is from the University of Michigan Museum of Zoology. It gives lots of background information on the Northern Bog Lemming such as geographic range, habitat, physical descriptions, information on reproduction, behavior, food, communication, and conservation status. [1] This source would be used for dedicating a lot of information to the topic.
  • "Synaptomys borealis: Northern Bog Lemming | Rare Species Guide". Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. Retrieved 2024-10-12.
    • This source is from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. Describes the reason for being listed as a species of special concern for Minnesota, as well as provides a description of the northern bog lemming as well as information for its habitat, biology and life history, and conservation and management.[2] This source would be used for dedicating a lot of information to the topic.
  • Webmaster, David Ratz. "Northern Bog Lemming - Montana Field Guide". fieldguide.mt.gov. Retrieved 2024-10-12.
    • This source is from the Montana Official state website and is a field guide to the northern bog lemming. It describes some state specific behaviors to the northern bog lemming, but also general (but informational) descriptions of western hemisphere range, habitat, food, ecology and reproductive characteristics[3]
  • "Northern bog lemming | Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife". wdfw.wa.gov. Retrieved 2024-10-12.
    • This source is from the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife and is a page about the Northern Bog Lemming's description and range, climate vulnerability and conservation.[4]
  • "Northern Bog Lemming" (PDF). MDIFW Endangered Species Program.
    • This source is from the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife. It describes the Northern Bog Lemming in Maine, its range and habitat, its life history and ecology, its threats, and conservation and management. [5]
  • "Minnesota Profile: Northern bog lemming (Synaptomys borealis) | September–October 2022 | Minnesota Conservation Volunteer". Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. Retrieved 2024-10-12.
    • This source is from the Minnesota Conservation Volunteer page from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.It describes the Northern Bog lemming's appearance, behavior, habitat, distribution, life cycle and status. [6]
  • "Species in Greatest Conservation Need (SGCN) List for 2015 Update: Appendix C" (PDF). Minnesota's Wildlife Action Plan 2015-2025.
    • This source is one that the article already used. I intend to fix the citation format as it is a PDF and hard to cite on wikipedia. It also gives some good information.[7]
