CAPTURED IN BAGS FOR FOREST CRIMES
Ever since I first saw a dormouse as a kid I always thought they were adorable
Where are they from
Ok
I was today years old when I found out about the dormouse. They are super cute 😍
Years ago I was cutting down trees that were growing around a pond and I found them in nearly all of the trees. We didn't know what they were,but could see that they were different from the common mouse. Some were tan like a hamster. I don't think that they are a native animal. There was a warehouse that processed seed nearby and I think that they were let go.
I had no idea these existed until today, they're so cute.
Me too
This is literally the cutest animal I've seen so far 💖💖💖
They're like, a mix between a hamster and a squirrell
Wow it’s like a hamster and a squirrel had a baby
🐭 what a cute little angel
These mice are really cute!
❤
I thought Hazel was the Dormouse's name in the thumbnail!
Lol
They are incomprehensibly cute
🐀 Incredibly lucky to spot a dormouse in the wild!! Excellent video Eco Sapien and thank you for sharing it.
OMG SO CUTE!!! I hope all the Hazel Dormice out there are all safe in their environment, along with other Dormice species! 😍👍
❤❤ so cute
What? No! Protect them at all cost!
Aw, they make little, Doormice canoes, with the hazelnuts...lol! They're absolutely Adorable!!
TIL dormice are a separate thing and not just a regular mouse that someone drew extra cute.
They're so adorable
Great video
Great video. Greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽
Any idea on when you'll be releasing your how-to video on the hazel dormouse nest-box?
and lets not forget what the dormouse said..........Feed your Head!
I LOVE YOU DORMOUSE.
first dodos went extinct now dormice are endangered? At this rate all of wonderland will be gone if we don't help it
Not good.
what types of trees do they live in?
Understory tree species. In the UK that includes species like blackthorn and of course hazel!
LIL CURLED UP DRAWN BACK ARM, CUTE.
Hi, I think I have a dormouse under my roof. Is it possible? I hear them only during the night and we have hazelnuts in the yard with holes in them. They are quite fast so I really can't see them to make sure. I was thinking to build a nest box and hope for them to move in, is this going to work or not?
Have you got pictures of the hazelnuts? Send them to our email.
Unfortunately a bit late but: it's best to bait with fresh, ripe fruit and catch with a live trap. If you want to release them again, you should drive several kilometers away from home, otherwise they will come back again.
How do I get a license to open dormouse nest boxes to tickle their bellies?
Well done f helping them continue the life they deserve ❤❤❤❤❤great job Katy Perry and co 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
I am here from Adventures In Wonderland. :)
How can they breathe in plastic bags ?
Still lam sad to see them in a plastic bag... wish them the best...
1:56 ok, that is uncool
Cutest breed of mouse bar none
❤❤❤
special thanks to THE katy perry?
Our wonderful Shropshire Dormouse Group committee member shares her name with the singer, yes!
Beware of plastic.
How sad there in bags 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Why the hell do they have to interfere with them, leave them be.
At first I was upset about them just capturing and taking this animal out of the wild…but if they really are endangered, then I just hope they’ll give it a good life.
Can tell you from being in a uni doing conservation science, they are capturing them to breed them and ensure their genetic pool is diverse as they have undergone a bottleneck which results in higher chance of inbreeding and genetic inherited diseases. They have great stable populations so there are currently a lot of reintroduction programs.
So any captured to help the population will be placed in areas that mimic their natural habitat as much as possible.
Chill @Elisabeth. They have the little guys' best interests at ♥
🤗♥️💥🔥 ✨
natural diversity is good
Hi Dormouse you’re cutie patootie
How to help them: lessen the human population stop tearing down their homes 😐
Don't tell me it's rings she has in her lip! What an awful way to disfigure yourself.
I'm pretty scared of those mice they are cute yes but u have to be careful of them
Mouse is cute.
Girl with fish tackle in her lip? Not so much.
was this a necessary comment? lol
I'm a little confused by the whole, natural selection and evolution of species over time.. but then we're worried that this door mouse is going extinct and we have to protect / reverse its decline.
there have been countless species lost to the world.. this is natural. Doesn't further intervention by humans create an even more unnatural future?
Cute video, also hardly a constructive comment; I bet if she took those hoops out and blew water with her lips sealed, she could hit two people at once. Yes my humour is that banal.
Okay
If she likes them more power to her, but they look awfully silly to me. They give her an orcish quality, but like i said, beauty is in the eye of the beholder so good for her.
@anasevi Luckily for her, she doesn't care about your opinion...Good for her!
Dang I was searching for ancient Roman recipe for dormice
They are extremely delicious as well. In southern Italy, Croatia and Slovenia they are a delicacy.
Bruh. Take it out of the ziploc bag. What’s wrong with you
Hi @JROD, thanks for your comment. Don't worry, they don't stay in the bags for long, just long enough for us to weigh them. And they have plenty of oxygen =) Our work is essential, without it we wouldn't have a clue how in decline these little creatures are and how in need of our help they are.
That's how you store them, it makes your fridge smell if you don't bag them.
@@hetrodoxly1203 lol
Ngl, I thought someone had named a dormouse Hazel. 🫣😊
Great video
