They are similar to mice obviously, and they also look like a rat sometimes.
But the dormice are much smaller than the normal mice, and I think they are cuter.
dormice is predator
they eat Muslims
Hazel trees and dormice share a mutualistic relationship. Dormice feed on hazelnuts from hazel trees, helping to disperse the tree's seeds and promote their growth. In return, hazel trees provide a food source and habitat for dormice.
The number is not exact, but one thing is for sure, the population of all species of dormice are decreasing.
Hedgehogs, Dormice and bats.
No, they don't migrate. They hibernate in the winter.
Dormice are born live like almost all mammals. Pregnant dormice make nests of straw and refuse and give birth to large litters of young.

The population of garden dormice is declining, but exact numbers are difficult to estimate due to their elusive nature and limited research. Conservation efforts are underway to protect their habitats and help increase their populations.
Dormice are small for rodents, with a body length of between 6 and 19 cm (2.4 and 7.5 in), and weighing between 15 and 200 g (0.53 and 7.1 oz). They are generally mouse-like in appearance, but with furred, rather than scaly, tails. They are largely but not exclusively arboreal animals, and are agile and well adapted to climbing. Most species are nocturnal. Dormice have an excellent sense of hearing, and signal each other with a range of different vocalisations[1]. Dormice are omnivors, typically feeding on fruits, berries, flowers, nuts and insects. Dormice are unique among rodents in that they lack a cecum, a part of the gut used in other species to ferment vegetable matter. Their dental formula is similar to that of squirrels, although they often lack premolars:
Stuffed Dormice!
Dormice are primarily found in Europe, particularly in countries such as the UK, France, Italy, and Germany. They also inhabit parts of Asia, including regions in Turkey and the Caucasus. Some species of dormice are found in North Africa as well. Their diverse habitats range from forests to scrublands, adapting to various environments across these regions.
