Moles are small, burrowing mammals known for their cylindrical bodies, velvety fur, and powerful front limbs adapted for digging. They primarily live underground, creating extensive tunnel systems where they search for food, mainly consisting of insects, earthworms, and other invertebrates. Moles are found in various habitats, including gardens, fields, and forests, and play a crucial role in aerating the soil. These creatures are often recognized by their distinctive features, such as their small eyes and lack of external ears. Moles are solitary animals and are most active during the night. Their presence can be beneficial for soil health, but they can also be seen as pests in gardens and lawns, where their tunneling can disrupt plant roots.
