Guidance

Guidance for mitigation of mammals can sometimes become out of date between published editions of handbooks. Bookmark this page for any amendments, clarifications or additional information to support mitigation guidance.

  • Our recently (March 2025) published Hazel Dormouse Mitigation Handbook contained some typos and omissions in the first print run, though the version now for sale on NHBS and as an e-book on our website has now been amended to include the below.

    If you purchased a hard copy of the Hazel Dormouse Mitigation Handbook before the reprint you can claim a free copy of the corrected e-book. Email proof of purchase to ceo@themammalsociety.org to claim your pdf.

  • In the first print run of the Hazel Dormouse Conservation Handbook - Third Edition (Published March 2025) the photos of dormouse tracks (Figure 5.7a on p35) were mislabelled. This has been corrected for later print runs. Please see correct labelling of front and hind tracks in this image file.
