A new tool to help conserve one of the UK's most threatened mammals has been released today, with the publication of the first high-quality reference genome for the European water vole.

preying on water voles. It has been a problem that has also been seen in other parts of Europe, particularly the Netherlands and Belgium. Surveys across the UK have now shown another steep fall.

A single breeding mink can eliminate an entire water vole colony. No mink have been seen near Malham Tarn for 10 years. Roisin Black, a National Trust ranger, said: "In the rest of Europe ...

European water voles returned to Britain from ice-free refuges in Iberia and Eastern Europe after the last ice age, with these two clades contributing to genetic diversity in UK populations.
