The Real Mad Hatter’s Tea Party with Dot Eaton*

Thursday 3rd March 2016,
7.15pm - 9.00pm

Venue: Park United Reformed Church, Palmer Park Avenue, Wokingham Road,

This talk is about the hazel or common dormouse (Muscardinus avellenarius) being given a bit of a leg-up from the brink of extinction, via adventures with raccoons, elephants and people! Dot was involved with the dormouse captive-breeding programme - up to 2013 there were 17 reintroductions throughout England, involving hundreds of enthusiastic naturalists and volunteers. Hopefully the future of the not so common, common dormouse is in safe hands.
