Small Mammal Monitoring in Richmond Park
We carried out a three-year study to compare the productivity of two different Park habitats using the capture-mark- release method. Pictured above is a short-tailed vole, other species caught were: shrews' pygmy shrews, and a yellow necked mouse. These were caught in Longworth traps by Alison Fure and her volunteers, if your want any more information on this or survey work for bats, dormice etc please use the contact form - see menu below.

Our aims are

To identify & protect important & significant wildlife habitats & species in the Borough
To enable all sectors of the local community in Richmond to have safe and easy access to nature
To encourage all sectors of the local community to cherish & care for their local environment
To collect information about nature conservation & ensure that it is made more widely available
To encourage those responsible for larger areas of land to manage it to enhance biodiversity
