Check out this water shrew in action! #WildlifeWednesday 💦 Did you know? The water shrew is quite unusual among mammals because it has a venomous bite! The poison in its saliva is strong enough to immobilise frogs and small fish. It can tackle prey up to 60 times heavier than itself, including newts, frogs, crustaceans and snails. This footage was captured on our wilding site, Honeygar by one of our incredible mammal monitoring volunteers #speciessurvivalfund Curious about our first ever 'wilde

🐾 We have three species of shrew in the UK, and all three were spotted at Wells Farm, thanks to camera boxes built by Paul, volunteer warden for Wells Farm and Oxfordshire Mammal Group! Common shrews measure from 5-8cm in length, weighing in between 5-14g, while the smaller pygmy shrew can weigh as little as 2g. Despite its small stature, the pygmy shrew is always hungry (we know the feeling) and can eat 125% of its body weight every day! The water shrew is the largest of the three, and is quit

This juvenile Northern Short-tailed shrew was found and subsequently rescued from a homeowner's pool. They acted swiftly and got this little fellow into care. Once warmed and hydrated, this patient was offered mealworms and began eating voraciously! Shrews have an extremely high metabolism, and eat three times their body weight in food each day. As the only venomous mammal in North America, they subdue their prey with a neurotoxic bite (though fatal to the insects and worms they eat, it is not d

A busy water shrew at work. They have one of the fastest metabolism of any mammal and generally have to eat their own body weight in grub every single day! Did you know water shrews have a venous bite that can stun and paralyse prey much larger than themselves! Although they generally feast on insects they can also feast on small fish and frogs We're hopeful this little rotund shrew will make a full recovery and be released back to the wild soon | RSPCA Mallydams Wood Wildlife Rehabilitation and

Y'all really seemed to find the Northern Short-tailed Shrew — one of the few venomous mammals in the world — very interesting, so here's a video of one in action, accompanied by some more fun facts for you! Most people know of shrews from either the use of the word as an insult or from William Shakespeare's play, The Taming of the Shrew, but these tiny critters are super interesting. The southern Appalachians are a hotspot for shrew diversity in North America and are cousins to another misunders

I love a good shrew! Shrews are iconic insectivorous mammals that can be found all over the world! Many species also possess a mild venom in their saliva which helps them to take down prey quickly and efficiently. Shrews have a rapid metabolism and have to feed regularly or they risk starving to death in mere hours. While it might seem a little dramatic, this is my reaction any time I do in fact see a shrew! They are one of my favorite animal groups and I’ve always loved learning about them even
