Much of the rest of the country consists of mesic savanna—dense shrubland alternating with impenetrable swamp—which is largely beyond the reach of government.

Peromyscus maniculatus is ubiquitous, occurring in habitats ranging from mesic boreal forests to arid southwestern deserts.

The stock on the Caribbean lowlands remained in mesic environments and evolved into S. cyanosticta.
