Relocation of common lizards

Will translocating a Slow Worm

Wild-Frontier Ecology completed the successful removal and relocation of common lizards and slow worm from a housing development site in Suffolk. 

After negotiation with the local council, over 200 animals were translocated to a nearby Country Park and the site was cleared without any mortality. We performed ecological clerk of works duties whilst the vegetation was removed, working closely with the contractors to ensure no animals were killed. Three hibernacula were installed on the receiving site to support the increased reptile population.
