Now, the 23 October to 1 November is National Mammal Week.

It's a chance to celebrate our mammals and their conservation in Britain - and a chance to raise awareness of how we can all help.

The British Isles are home to around 90 species of mammal in the land, air and sea.  And the Mammal Society was established back in 1954

It advocates "science-led mammal conservation, leading efforts to collect and share information on mammals, encourage research to learn more about their ecology, distribution and contribute meaningfully to efforts to conserve them".

There are plenty of ways you can get involved, from surveys to donating to their latest appeal (Hogs on Roads), becoming a member to spreading the word.
