Caught in a 'Round' Slumber - The Chubby Cheeks of the Edible Dormouse!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this delightful snapshot, we witness the epitome of cuteness as a plump and contented Fat/Edible Dormouse takes its beauty sleep. Nestled snugly within its cozy nest, this Glis glis showcases why it's considered one of nature's most adorable creatures. With its round body resembling a perfectly formed ball, our furry friend has mastered the art of hibernating in style. Its curled posture is reminiscent of a seasoned yogi practicing an advanced pose! As winter sets in, these European mammals retreat into their nests to rest and recharge for the coming season. The photo captures not only the dormouse's peaceful slumber but also highlights its incredible adaptability. These little rodents have become experts at surviving harsh winters by storing fat reserves during warmer months – hence their amusing nickname! As we admire this image, it's hard not to notice how effortlessly cute and cuddly these dormice appear. Their chubby cheeks make them irresistible to both wildlife enthusiasts and those lucky enough to hold them gently in their hands. So let us embrace this heartwarming moment captured by Ardea Wildlife Pets Environment—a reminder that even when life gets hectic, there is always time for a well-deserved nap!
