And yet, they managed to stick around for many many many many many years. If anything makes them extinct it'll be human encroachment/ loss of habitat. They don't lie around on the forest floor like that when they go dormant. They're found in nests made in/under bushes, in trees or treeholes if they can find one. Also, some people build and install nest boxes to give them a habitat and if the dormice find one, they'll be in there.They really wouldn't have lasted this long if they did just drop 'dead' wherever they might have been standing.
Sez here... and here too
