Other Mammals Licence Return Data (1905 - 2007)

Collation of records from CCW licence returns for work carried out on scheduled mammal species sites in Wales. The collation was created to add to the picture of protected mammal distributions in Wales, to collect relevant data in one place and to mobilise records which may not otherwise be available. This dataset includes sightings of Bank Vole, Eurasian Common Shrew, Eurasian Pygmy Shrew, Eurasian Red Squirrel, Eurasian Water Shrew, European Water Vole, Field Vole, Harvest Mouse, Polecat, Wood Mouse and Yellow-necked Mouse.

Licence return forms are completed by licence holders as a condition of receiving the licence. Licences are issued to organisations and individuals to permit activities which would otherwise by unlawful, such as deliberately capturing or disturbing scheduled species, or damaging or destroying their breeding sites and resting places. Licences are generally issued for the purposes of survey, monitoring and research, or for building and other development work. Location of records is generally random, depending on the requirements of the licence holders. This data has been packaged with other species licence return data on Recorder 6 and is available to download via the NBN Gateway (see Parent ID). Some more recent mammal licence return data has been digitised by Cofnod. Cofnod act as data custodian and hold the top copy of this licence return data, not the data held in Recorder 6 which is managed by NRW.
