The wild stoats living in Ash Wood are mesmerising as they scale trees, scurry along paths and hunt animals twice their size. With the help of cameras hidden in this woodland I've captured their individual stories.

ABOUT THIS FILM
____________________

Stoats (Mustela erminea)

Known as shorttailed weasels in the US, stoats are common animals, but thanks to their secrecy and speed, they are difficult to spot. My hidden cameras offer a rare opportunity to follow their wild and secret lives.

Fearless

Although small in stature, stoats are fearless. Watch as the wild stoats in Ash Wood take on squirrels, rats, and even a buzzard! (For US readers this bird is similar to your hawk)

And playful

But although these animals are formidable hunters, they also have a playful side. Just watch as one scampers from tree to tree, just for the fun of it!

Stoats of Ash Wood

There are many stoats in Ash Wood, including an ermine (which has the capacity to turn white in winter), but I have identified two main characters: a dominant male and female identifiable by the white spots around her nose. I'm hoping this means we get kits to follow this year!

Ash Wood

Ash wood is a wildlife habitat I developed specifically to attract wildlife. (Learn more: https://www.robertefuller.com/diary/t...)
