Wildlife watchers needed this spring

Volunteers needed to record garden wildlife for nationwide 'Living with Mammals' survey

- 

This spring, volunteers across the UK are being asked to record sightings of mammals spotted in their gardens, local parks and other green spaces, in a bid to understand our changing environment better and encourage urban wildlife to flourish.

The annual 'Living with Mammals' survey is run by wildlife charity People's Trust for Endangered Species (PTES). It's a nationwide survey that records how wild mammals - from badgers and bats to water voles and weasels - are faring in all corners of the country. Importantly, it also helps to identify areas where conservation action is most needed.
