Eastern meadow voles have to eat frequently, and their active periods (every two to three hours) are associated with food digestion.

[11] with low tolerance for habitat variation (i. e., a species that is intolerant of variations in habitat, is restricted to few habitats, and/or uses habitats less evenly than tolerant species).

The long-tailed vole are apprehensive of other voles. [12] They are found in areas inhabited by other microtines, but generally avoid contact.
