The Nottinghamshire Water Vole Recovery Project – one of more than 60 projects aimed at recovering a wide range of our scarcest animals and plants supported by £14.5 million of funding via Natural England’s Species Recovery Programme – has reached an exciting stage with the release of over 100 captive bred water voles at the charity’s Idle Valley Nature Reserve near Retford.

The project, which runs until March 2025, is investing £491,740 in a range of measures to restore and create vital wetland habitat to support the species; boosting water vole numbers, and a targeted programme of mink control across 900 hectares of wetland habitat and more than 50km of rivers.
