The local #wilder team went for a walk to see what we could find, and were excited to find hazelnuts which had been chewed by dormice. Lovely to know we have some in our village. Isn’t the chew pattern pretty! #patternsInNature #dormice

Day 17 of our Nature Advent!
An LBAP Species today - a sweet dormouse in peaceful slumber—nature’s tiny hibernator. 🐭🍂
Dormice are expert sleepers, hibernating through winter and resting in summer to conserve energy.

Do hibernating animals go to the loo? | Discover Wildlife

Lots of #animals hibernate. #Hedgehogs hunker down, #dormice curl up in a ball, and #bats take to their roosts. #Hibernation occurs when animals enter a state of almost total inactivity during the winter months.

It's not Autumn without a snoozing Dormouse!
The last of 2025's Denbighshire Dormouse surveys...good numbers found & it would appear that it's been a good breeding season for them,🤞for a safe uninterrupted hibernation. #Dormice #Denbighshire

Do red squirrels and dormice get along? Can animals share the same space peacefully high above the ground in the treetops? A research team at the University of Göttingen has found that forests combining both deciduous and conifer trees make it easier for red squirrels and dormice to coexist. Using cameras placed high in the canopy, scientists discovered that red squirrels tend to prefer coniferous forests, while dormice are more commonly found in beech forests. However, in mixed forests that include both tree types, both species were observed living side by side. This suggests that mixed forests could play an important role in supporting biodiversity. The findings were published in the European Journal of Wildlife Research.

A little sleepy dormouse 🐭🍂

Most of these guys hibernate from around October to April, so they should be sleeping soundly for a couple more months (must be nice!)
