Sažetak
During field research on the Slovene high southern plateau, we collected data on the presence of edible dormouse in 43 caves. Field research was undertaken for such signs of dormice in the caves as runs, droppings, hair and dead animals. Additional records are based on direct observations of live animals. In the majority of cases, caves which reveal the obvious presence of dormice are not accessible to the stone marten. The droppings and even bodies of edible dormice in the caves might be an important nutrient imput for troglobionts. According to its frequent occurrence in a cave habitat, we can classify the edible dormouse as a cave dwelling animal.
