If you do see any rabbits, or any mammal, please let us know. We need to know WHAT you saw, WHERE and WHEN you saw it and WHO you are. Records can be sent direct to ERCCIS here.

Recording

If you see a fox in your garden, a dead badger on side of the road, your cat brings in a mouse, you've spotted a molehill or made any other mammal sighting; please send us your records and help to safeguard Cornwall’s mammals!

Records of WHAT you have seen, WHEN and WHERE are vital to build a picture of what is happening to the mammals in Cornwall, as well as details of WHO submitted the record, incase of any queries.

To find out more and to submit your records see the ERCCIS Wildlife Recording page.
