Where to see a House Mouse in Illinois
The House Mouse is recorded in the counties of 8 Illinois state parks (research-grade iNaturalist observations). Ranked by how often it is observed in each area:
- Lincolns New Salem State Park
- Ferne Clyffe State Park
- Cache River State Natural Area
- Sangchris Lake State Park
- James "Pate" Philip State Park
- William W. Powers State Recreation Area
- Kankakee River State Park
- Channahon State Park
These are county-level records — the species is documented in the area around each park, which is a strong steer rather than a guarantee for the park itself.
