How to recognise one of the field signs left by dormice

Shoots in Cheshire are involved in a dormouse conservation project for which BASC has gained funding from the SITA Trust. The project is one of many under BASC 's Green Shoots Programme. Here Sue Tatman from the Cheshire Wildlife Trust, a partner in the project, explains how to recognise one of the field signs left by dormice - a nibbled hazelnut. 

Helping the Dormouse

BASC's Green Shoots programme helps to link management of land for shooting with wider conservation projects. In Cheshire, Green Shoots is working with the Cheshire Wildlife Trust to improve and monitor habitats for the threatened dormouse.
