Fascinating Facts About Hazel Dormouse Habitats
Hazel dormice spend most of their active summer months high in tree branches and dense shrubbery, rarely descending to the ground. They are closely tied to hazel trees because hazel nuts provide an essential source of fats for fattening up before winter hibernation. During cold weather, these tiny rodents weave intricate nests out of bark and leaves to stay warm.
