Additional Information on Shrews. The shrew is a small, mouse-sized mammal with an elongated snout, a dense fur of uniform color, small eyes, and five clawed toes on each foot (Fig. 1). Its skull, compared to that of rodents, is long, narrow, and lacks the zygomatic arch on the lateral side characteristic of rodents.
Shrews create dime sized holes in the lawn gaining access to existing mole tunnels. Shrews are insectivores and can be found under logs and other damp, shaded areas where insects live. Many people will leave shrews alone since they eat insects and grubs and are not as destructive as moles and voles.
