Common Mole 



Scalopus aquaticiis aqiiaticus 



The mole is a widely distributed mammal which 

 is little known by the average person because of its 

 habit of living almost entirely underground where it 

 digs a series of ramifying tunnels. Its wanderings are, 

 usually, so near the surface that its burrows may be 

 followed by the ridges which appear on the ground.
