Since 2017 a termly survey of the animal life of Peterhouse's gardens has been carred out; during an hour all animals species encountered are photographed and identified. These are supplemented with casual observations at other times. Monthly moth trapping (and caddisfly) results are presented at the bottom of this page. 876 animal species have been recorded so far.

Latest records: October 2024
