MAMMAL TRAPPING

Clare met up with us at 7.30am this morning to check out the traps we'd set on the mound. Incredibly out of the 10 traps we'd set 5 of them had caught something! Clare said that was a very good result, and we were expecting 1 or 2 at the most. The mammals we'd caught were 4 Wood Mice and 1 Common Shrew. All animals were released completely harmless and happily skipped off to get on with their daily routine. The whole Group thoroughly enjoyed the experience and all agreed to do a lot more trapping in the coming months.
