"Discovered in the upland landscape of the Rhondda and Afan valleys in south #Wales, upland habitats are now one of the most significant places in Wales for the small mammal... More than 40 water vole colonies have now been recorded in the past few years and they play a vital role in maintaining the balance and health of upland ecosystems."
Shropshire Wildlife TrustThe latest report from TWT highlights the national picture with a 39% decrease in water vole range since 2006. But there is hope! 🌿

Beavers create habitat suitable for #WaterVoles in Scottish rainforest

"The #voles, once abundant in #Scotland but now one of the country’s most threatened #animals, could thrive in the complex boundary between water and land that #beavers have created in Knapdale since their #reintroduction there in 2009... They’ve increased the edge habitat: instead of a harsh change from water to land, the edges along the burns and lochs are softened and seasonally flooded."

365 water voles have been released in the Lake District to hopefully create a strong population. They're very much needed as part of a healthy, sustainable ecosystem.
