Best Answer

Yes. Dormice are mostly found in Europe, although some live in Africa and Asia. They are particularly known for their long periods of hibernation.

Only one species of dormouse is native to the British Isles. Everyday English usage dormouse usually refers to this species (the Hazel Dormouse) rather than to the family as a whole.
