Montgomeryshire has a fantastic range of mammals, from the tiny Pygmy Shrew to the great Red Deer, from aerial masters such as pipistrelle bats to expert swimmers like otters. With approximately 40 species of mammals in Montgomeryshire, there is plenty to see, without being overwhelming. I hope this blog inspires you to not only keep your eyes open for our wonderful mammals, but report your sightings too!

Polecat near Derwenlas
Report from Paul Davies, who picked up this brief appearance from a mature male Polecat on his trailcam at Morben Isaf Caravan Park.
Paul was delighted to have spotted the Polecat - "Nearly fell off my chair when I came across this one!". His trailcam has also captured rabbits, mice and hedgehogs.
