Gliridae: Dormice
Dormice live in wooded areas, hedgerows, gardens, and rocky places. They are generally nocturnal and scansorial and are squirrel-like in some habits. They shelter in hollow trees, on the branches of trees or shrubs, in rocky crevices, in the deserted burrows of other animals, and in the attics of buildings, often in a nest of plant material. [eng]
