Star Nosed Mole



The star-nosed moles can be easily identified by its snout that has 22 fleshy tentacles which they use to identify food by touch. They are also covered with thick, blackish brown, water-repellant fur and  large, scaled feet and a long, thick tail.

They are often found in eastern Canada and northeastern United States. It lives in wet lowland areas and eats small invertebrates, aquatic insects, worms, molluscs, small amphibians and small fish.
