Recording mammalsNational Mammal AtlasThe Mammal Society are currently working on a National Mammal Atlas, which will be published in late 2016. This will be the first mammal atlas for the UK in over 20 years; so from mole hills in Mayfied, to owl pellet innards in Ovingdean, 2016 is the year to get out and make your mammal records count!
Surveys There are lots of different mammal surveys and monitoring schemes to get involved with! 
During Autumn and Winter 2015/2016 we will be continuing our harvest mouse survey and we need an army of nest hunters across Sussex! To find out more contact us at sussexmammalsurveys[at]googlemail.com

Seen any mammals lately? Wildlife recording is an essential part of conservation work and helps us focus our mammal activities in the right places. Mammals are often under-recorded so if you have a mammal encounter in Sussex, be sure to submit a record!
Submitting your mammal records
To submit a record you just need to gather four pieces of information:
what species you have seen
where you saw it
when you saw it
who recorded it
