Subspecies.. now that can be difficult to define. I think that the voles that my German friend has that are a major agricultural pest there and look identical to our endangered water voles (and even have the same name) are not the same thing we have. I think the German voles are a sub species. They are the bane of her life. They eat roots off every tree she plants. They eat most of all the veggies she plants. I think she needs to bomb her land to get rid of them as nothing else works..she sets traps and gets a few, her cat gets some but the voles in Lower Saxony will just eat everything you plant. There no work there so you need what you plant to keep yourself alive. Most people keep hens and grow pumpkins. There are lots of vole species. I doubt very much if there are enough water voles to be a problem - for a start, they prefer to feed on waterside vegetation. Other species though - Lemmings are almost a sort of vole... Andy |
