THE SHORT-TAILED SHREW UNDER MY DECK. I have been observing this shrew for the past few months with a remote camera. Did you know that Short-tailed Shrews are the only venomous mammal in North America? Their venom immobilizes or kills their earthworm and insect prey.

This patient may be a LEAST Shrew (Cryptotis parva), but he's the MOST to us! ❤️ Despite looking rather mousey, Least Shrews are not rodents at all!

Their eyes and ears are extremely small, indicating poor eyesight and hearing in this species. They make up for it with a keen sense of smell and sensitive whi

The short-eared elephant shrew, or sengi, is a small insectivorous mammal with a long, flexible snout that it uses to sniff out insects and other small prey.

These quick, agile creatures can reach speeds of nearly 18 miles per hour to escape predators. Fun Fact: The short-eared elephant shrew’s unique network of trails through grass and shrubs is like a personal highway system, helping
