This document describes a project to map suitable habitat areas for capturing the threatened garden dormouse in Northwestern Romania. The author intersected shapefiles of the dormouse's habitat range and protected natural areas to identify locations that are both within the species' range and protected status. The resulting map can guide surveys to assess the dormouse's population. Future work may refine target areas based on land cover and the research team's region of activity. The limited existing data on the dormouse in Romania motivated the project to better survey its current distribution.
