I was reading on the BBC news website that this weekend, the National People's Trust for endangered species are doing a survey to see if Dormouse numbers are continuing to decline - the pictures are just too cute for words!
According to the PTES, the population has declined only 9% between 2002-2008, as the result of strict habitat guidelines.
Their website is absolutely brilliant for all dormouse fans, with lots of information sheets & a twice yearly newsletter. You can also register to take part in 'The Great Nut hunt' to help document dormouse population (I've signed up, but I think I'll have to travel further afield than Manchester to find any!)
