Common Dormouse Muscardinus avellanarius Linnaeus 1758 is a small mammal. It is the only living species current classified in the genus Muscardinus. It is 6-9 cm long with a tail of 5.7-7.5 cm. It weighs 17-20g, although this increases to 30-40g just before hibernation. The Hazel Dormouse hibernates from October to April-May. The hazel dormouse is native to northern Europe and Asia Minor. It is the only dormouse native to the British Isles (though the edible dormouse, Glis glis, has been accidentally introduced and now has an established population), and is therefore often referred to simply as the Dormouse in British sources.
