Beech trees produce nutritious seeds at unpredictable intervals. Consumers of such pulsed resources are often generalists that exhibit population growth following a mast fruiting event. However, one mammal shows maybe uniquely distinct adaptations to seed production: The edible dormouse (Glis glis). Dormice are able to anticipate a future mast situation, allowing them to synchronize reproduction with high food availability - or skip it entirely in the absence of seeds. Considering their strong adaptations, this study aims to investigate the influence of woodland composition on the species...
