SMALL MAMMAL SURVEY
Partly for scientific interest and partly to stop the bloody things eating our bird food, Oll L. is carrying out a mammal survey using humane traps. Hence what we believe to be a field mouse of no cryptozoological interest whatsoever, was caught in the conservatory (sounds like a game of Cluedo) and released near Barnstaple yesterday.

Because they cannot travel or disperse vast distances, the development of genetically unique subspecies of small mammals is quite common.
Indeed, if I were looking to find a new species or subspecies of mammal, I would start with mice.
