Thumbs up for endangered Haweswater water voles

Available for over a year

Threatened with extinction, these cute voles have been reintroduced by the Eden Rivers Trust and partner organisations, and it looks like like they're beginning to establish a breeding population. Better known as 'Ratty' in The Wind and the Willows classic children's book, it's hoped that they will once again become a common sight on Cumbria's waterways.
