World’s Strangest Looking Animals
The world is full of strange and exotic creatures. For example, the Star-Nosed Mole in this photo lives in wet lowland areas and eats small invertebrates, aquatic insects, worms and mollusks. It is a good swimmer and can forage along the bottoms of streams and ponds. Like other moles, it digs shallow surface tunnels that often exit underwater. The mole’s sensitive nasal tentacles are covered with almost one hundred thousand touch receptors for navigating and locating food.
