Sažetak
Fat dormouse is our indigenous game, which belongs to the Rodent order (Rodentia), Muscardinida family (Muscardinidae), Dormouse genus (Glis) and fat dormouse specie (Myoxus glis). The dental formula of the fat dormouse is: I 1/1, C 0/0, P 1/1, M 3/3. Dormice live in the various habitats, from bush-like vegetations over forests to human permises (hunting lodges, weekend cottages, etc). They eat various food, like seeds, hazelnuts, beechnuts, acorns, walnuts, fruits, insects, bird eggs, bark of trees and even small birds. Morphological and histological features of their teeth are determined by genetic and functional factors. The studies of dormice are extremelly rare in the recent literature, which inspired authors to study morphological and histological features of incisor teeth. The results of the study point to some statistically important values in comparison to the statements in the literature.
