Pocket gophers (Orthogemys cherriei) is a pest in agriculture in Limón, Costa Rica; 232 animals were trapped in several farms. They reproduce continuously throughout the year. Adults of both sexes are found in reproductive condition at any time. The females produce at least 2 litters per year (1-4 newborns each). There is no correlation between position of testes and production of sperm. The position of the testes is not a reliable factor to establish the reproductive condition in males. There is a correlation between length of os penis (baculum) and length of the testes, irrespectively of its reproductive condition. These pocket gophers disperse above-ground.
囊鼠（Orthogemys cherriei）是哥斯达黎加利蒙省农业中的一种害虫；在几个农场捕获了232只囊鼠。它们全年持续繁殖。任何时候都能发现处于繁殖状态的成年雌雄囊鼠。雌性每年至少产2窝（每窝1 - 4只幼崽）。睾丸位置与精子产生之间没有相关性。睾丸位置不是确定雄性繁殖状态的可靠因素。阴茎骨（baculum）的长度与睾丸长度之间存在相关性，与繁殖状态无关。这些囊鼠在地面上扩散。
