A mole is a small mammal known for its subterranean lifestyle. Resembling a tiny mouse, it has velvety fur, short limbs, and strong front paws equipped with sharp claws for digging intricate tunnel systems. Moles are excellent burrowers, creating complex networks of underground tunnels and chambers. These industrious creatures spend most of their lives hidden beneath the earth, emerging occasionally to hunt for insects, worms, and other invertebrates. Their presence is often indicated by characteristic molehills, small mounds of excavated soil that dot the landscape.
