EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, dating back to the late 19th century, showcases two enchanting dormouse species: the Suirrel-tailed Dormouse (Muscardinus avellanarius, left) and the Garden Dormouse (Eliomys quercinus, right). Both species are native to Europe and are named for their hibernation habits during the winter months. The Suirrel-tailed Dormouse, also known as the Long-tailed Dormouse or the European Dormouse, is easily distinguished by its long, bushy tail. This historical photograph captures the intricate details of its fur, which ranges from a reddish-brown to a yellowish-grey color, with a white underbelly. The species is known for its agility and ability to climb trees using its long, curved claws. The Garden Dormouse, on the right, is smaller in size and has a rounder body shape with a shorter, less bushy tail. Its fur is typically a reddish-brown color with a white underbelly. This species is often found in wooded areas and gardens, and it is a valuable indicator species for the health of woodland ecosystems. The dormouse's name comes from the Old French word "dormir," meaning "to sleep," and "mouse," due to their hibernation habits. During the winter months, they enter a state of torpor, during which their body temperature drops, and their metabolism slows down to conserve energy. This historical photograph offers a glimpse into the natural history of these fascinating creatures and their important role in the European ecosystem.
